Whether you're just embarking on your MIG welding journey or already enrolled in welding classes, these five tips shall be your guiding light as you lay down impeccable welds. 5 Beginner’s Tips for Making a Good MIG WeldWelding…
A nickel alloy is a metal that contains a percentage of nickel in its elemental makeup. Nickel is primarily alloyed with chromium, copper, iron, titanium, and molybdenum. Each of these alloy combinations has specific properties that make it best suited to a certain range of applications. For example, Inconel® has excellent corrosion, oxidation, and high-temperature resistance. Most nickel alloys exhibit…
Pulse welding is a process that is used in Gas Metal Arc Welding (MIG) and Gas Tungsten Arc Welding (TIG). The pulse process works by quickly varying the current between a high and a low amperage when welding. These two amperages are known as the peak and background amperages. A welding machine with pulse welding capability will automatically vary the current at a…

Part of what makes aluminum great is that it is so lightweight. It is also an incredibly sensitive metal. Being naturally more porous, the metal is more subject to contamination during welding. Since it is more sensitive, it also is subject to heat distortion. Check out some of these aluminum welding projects and admire the overall craftsmanship required to work with this metal. Perhaps you might find you want to try your hand at one. The 14 Aluminum Welding Project Are: 1. Battery Tray Materials:1/8” Aluminum plate, 6” turnbucklesTools:Welder, grinder, angle iron or sheet metal bender, hammer (optional)Difficulty:Moderate Watch how the designer builds a battery tray for his truck. He removes the battery, makes paper templates based on the dimensions…
