Re: Junkyard Jimmy Super Low Buck Build Thread

Bought an argon bottle off ebay. With shipping its about half the cost of a new one. The hydro date is supposed to be current. Will have it long enough to swap it at the gas supply place. And a fellow board member will be sending me a flow meter for it, so I can start shaking the rust off my TIG skills in a couple weeks.

TIG isn't really needed for this project BTW. My MIG will handle most of this work. It's just something I've been wanting for as long as I've known how to do it. And it does make pretty welds, when done right.
