thanks...
and yep Kevin..just started tig..but Dad had me welding when i was about 10yrs old..old AC craftsman and 6013s.. i moved on to ac/dc stick, then on to mig and never really saw the need for tig..and was actually gonna use ss wire and mig the tubing..then my old hobart mig starting acting up ..and my hotrod buddy talked me into the tig..which led to the new mig/tig/stick welder.. which led to learning tig, which led to etc etc etc..
another thing i found thru the power of the net is using solarflux on the joints,instead of a argon purge on the tubing.. it seems to work pretty good
i still have trouble feeding the filler rod..my hands are so big i cant even tell if im holding that tiny .040 filler most of the time..makes it real hard to feed it in..i even got a filler rod holder but it dont help much. but welding on the tube , i cant weld more than a inch or two before i have to stop and rotate the tube so its working out
