Thanks! The tube is 16ga 2.5" 304 Stainless. I have a nice bead roller to form the ends.
Yea, def. get a bottle of argon/co2 mix. Flux core is a no go for car stuff, It will be a night and day difference on a small machine. I have a Hobart Handler 140 aka small mig lol It welds like butter!Last edited by Laguna7; 03-15-2013, 01:21 AM.Automotive Service and Fabrication In SOCAL!! https://www.facebook.com/JLRFAB
