FREAKING AWESOME!!!!! oh ive been waitinng for this question.....hell yeah you want tri clover...ya know if ur gonna upgrade and u want it super custom....i work in the food industry for a living and that whole system is really cool....fyi they make temp probs and heating elements and all that...

and boy oh boy is that argon expensive...and that welder sure sucks the juice....and i have a small machine....feel bad for some of those monsters out there!!

i charge 25 to cut the lid out, that includes smoothing it out and polishing it some then 35 per coupling...depending on what you brought up here to get done..im sure we could work out a deat where we were both happy:rockin: ps: i do take beer but just to drink....not for...

No way!! No I really enjoy all the conversation ..no one I know is into welding like me, so I definitely enjoy everyone's opinions ...It was late for me. Don't want anyone to think I'm an a$$ :rockin:

yeah no work today and too many shots by now, so thats why i edited it...ive got too many dazmn tabs open :rockin:

hey thanks....oh wait...this is my thread...isnt it???

yeah u can mig with argon....but this is for me now...that macihne wont support a mig welder...correct?:rockin:

ac welding is mainly for aluminum high freq is also for alum you can do alum and ss with argon with that machine or stick weld that machine doesnt do mig...u need a machine with cv capabilities for ref i use about 90 to 100 amps for thicker like around 1/4 thick and 30-50 for thinner gauge stuff

like u mean u literally let the wire ball up and the jam it in there or ?

hey thats freaking sweet bro...i dig that...wish i could get into aerospace...thats some good skill...how does the inconel weld compaired to 304 or 316 or even the al6xn...thats the toughest stuff ive welded

the longevity of it...and its prettier..and plus its what i do for a living...i love making that weld...i have a very strong passion for my work and what i do!

no...not as strong as tig....and dont ever mig weld a keg if u dont have to....mig welding is more for stuff u dont really care about...tig is way cleaner and better to use for a sanitary process:rockin:

yeah its way cheaper and ive seend some sweet solder connections on the soldering forum

heres my machine....and some off topic welds!!

no the six inch nipple goes on outside of keg....can on inside

if you get it welded.....make sure the guy back purges it....if ur gonna use flux u may as well solder it and not waste ur money paying someone to weld it....plus im not sure how the tig would react to flux.....tig likes clean areas

sorry heres that back purge set up

ahhh the age old question....one bottle of gas with a splitter...about 40 amps to tack and weld first fuse pass...yeah the interior weld was made on my first fuse pass from the outside of keg....thats why i place my coupling in with the face flush.....heres a pic of my backpurge set up....i tape...
