What place(s) has the best prices for things like tungstens/ filler rods?I found cyberweld, but i was wondering if there were any that were recommended for customer service speed of shipping etc?

Reply:I've had good experience with WeldingCity.com for tungsten. Haven't bought filler there. The killer with buying filler rod online is shipping, of course.

Reply:Originally Posted by OscarA lot of filler rod comes from China anyways, so eBay isn't anymore evil in that respect than any of the other suppliers, unless they have their own US-derived ore material and the proper mill to go from A-to-Z in filler rod production. Op, are you doing "pro" work that has to follow code, or are you doing "other"?  I think that is the main distinguishing factor.  Lately I've been ordering Blue Demon TIG rod on eBay in 10lb boxes.  It's just cheaper that way, even including shipping.  Got 40 lbs of ER312 @ $6.40/lb.  For my purposes, it welds just fine.

Reply:I wound up ordering from cyberweld for my tungstens since it was free shipping over 25$, filler metal i think i can get it cheaper from *gasp* airgas. they list ER70-s2 for 2.**/# minimum 10# and no shipping.
