Have you heard of fusion welding? Like other welding processes, it’s used to join two or more objects using heat. Fusion welding is unique, however, because of its ability to “fuse” the respective objects. Assuming the objects are made of the same or similar materials, the heat produced by a welding rig will melt their surfaces, thereby allowing the objects…
If you get a half-sheet of steel, you’ll make this unique welding project idea. A fire pit is made from textured steel. What makes firepit welding attractive to beginners is the flexibility of thickness. If your steel plate is just 1.2 mm thick, you can have a firepit welding idea become a reality. Added to that flexibility is that you…
A comparison between CO2, Argon/CO2 mix, Argoshield Light and pure Argon to find out which is the best on mild steel. The choice of shielding gas made a lot of difference to the ease of welding. Argon/CO2 mix or Argoshield result in easier and neater welds given an unrestricted choice of gas, but a MIG welder can be used with…

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…
Plasma cutting relies on ionized gas, or plasma, to cut through metal. To create this plasma, a high-pressure air or gas source is necessary. Traditionally, plasma cutters have relied on…
