Reply:Not sure what you're doing here. From what I understand, you're welding a thin gauge ALUMINUM sheet with a MIG...or just MIG alum. wire? Are you using a spool gun? I imagine aluminum wire as well? It's not clear, all this time I thought you were showing examples from the TA 185?John - fabricator extraordinaire, car nut!- bleeding Miller blue! http://www.weldfabzone.com

Reply:I think he TIG'ed it, using mig wire for filler. That's what I do too usually, I take 3 lengths of wire and twist them together with a drill. Works pretty well.Nice job on the fillet!EDIT: whoops, he beat me to the post button, guess I was wrong...

Reply:what size cup are you using for that?
Reply:I shoulda made 2 posts. The aluminum I am using a 5. That is all I have. For the 23 guage, I used a 4.My son (15) was using my only #6 cup on some hot rolled welding very slow. The cup got coated with spatter from the scale on the plate and he fried the tungston. I usually grind off scale from hot rolled. He didn't. I ordered a box of #6 and #8.I love this tig welding stuff. I am ordering a foot pedal for my Ranger 250.DavidReal world weldin. When I grow up I want to be a tig weldor.
