thats very good of you but im quite a drive away the best bargains are always so far lol
so can i just co2 gas then? the type from a pub my mates dad runs a bar i could try him

[HandyAndy]

buy him a pint or two & you,ll have as much gas as you need

well i,ve welded my chassis with only co2, seems ok to me

andy

[andyuk697]

nice one il see him tomorow i think i will need a co2 to argon adaptor and a regulator tho im not sure of the fittings

cheers Andy

[HandyAndy]

depends on the gas bottle i suppose, i have an adapter that allows 2 fittings of a gas bottle to fit the same reg.

machine mart are expensive for the regs by the way, try fleabay

Looks like you have made a good start there Andy.

How are you getting on with the welder? Did you go GAS or gasless in the end?

I am ordering my steel for Friday delivery as I have a couple of days off work, so hope to be cracking on with my chassis soon.

hi sean
the welders great i went for gas in the end so far its took me 4 weekends and out of that only really about 20ish hours
quite a few of them were head scratching moments aswell
the front frame the worst lol
the best advice i can give you is dont give up it will come good in the end and now im loving it

Andy.
