now not trying to side-track your thread, (mind you i don't weld) are you saying that a wire-fed welder can be used (along with the right gas bottle) can be used to weld aluminum? chris In a message dated 12/23/2014 9:57:33 P.M. Eastern Standard Time, jc22...@gmail.com writes:
Slight problem with that Idea. My welder does not have any equipment to use the necessary argon gas to weld aluminum. I'm stuck with steel I guess.
