<font size="+1"><font face="Comic Sans MS">I been playing with my
MIG welder. I've had it about 10 years and never hooked up the
inert gas bottle, just ran cored wire through it. I decided it
was about time to move on up to gas shielding as my sinuses got
beat up by the fumes from the core goo. I really like welding
with this machine now. Hardly any fumes and it's almost like
painting with metal, move real quick like an inch every 10
seconds on 16 gauge steel. <br>
<br>
I'm building a wood stove out of a hot water heater. I was
thinking of puting fins on it to sink the heat into the air. I
thought why not weld copper to steel? Looked it up on youtube
and it's been done so I decided to do a test.<br>

I took the peice in the house and threw it on the stove steel
side down. As it heated up you could see color marks on the
copper starting at the weld and moving up. It lookes like it
was sucking the heat out of the steel.<br>
<br>
Before someone asks, I can't weld aluminum at this time, but I
saw a cheap Chinese spool gun on Banggood which I might get.....<br>
