TIP#1
IF YOU ARE TRYING TO WELD A THICKER PIECE OF ALUMINUM,
AND YOU JUST DON’T HAVE ENOUGH HEAT,TRY THIS TRICK.
SWITCH YOUR TIG MACHINE TO DC-,
PURCHASE A CYLINDER OF HI-PURE HELIUM(99.997%),
USE 2% TUNGSTEN, AND SHARPEN YOUR TUNGSTEN SLIGHTLY.
YOUR WELD WILL COME OUT SOOTY,
BUT JUST CLEAN UP YOUR WELD.
THIS LOOKS LIKE IT GOES AGAINST EVERYTHING THAT
YOU MIGHT HAVE LEARNED ABOUT TIG WELDING ALUMINUM,
BUT IT WORKS JUST FINE AND WILL
ALLOW YOU TO WELD MATERIAL MUCH THICKER THAN YOU USED TO!!!!
