I think I'm going to buy a gas bottle for me 110 wire feed welder. What % argon should I get, and what size bottle would you recommend? Should I stick with .035 for exhaust work?(16 guage)

I like 75/25 gas and you can stay with .o35 but I would go smaller if I was to buy more say .o23 but I did my exhaust with .o35.

I am going to let out one of my secrets for welding thin sheet steel like floors fenders etc...


Check out this link for this stuff!

New JW Harris "20-Gauge" Cored Welding Wire-.030"-10lb

I know this isn't mig but sometimes simple is better.

This is a cored wire that will give you impressive results

I found that running .023 made hotter nicer welds with longer duty cycles over the .035 and/or .030.
