Kevin ,, first clean with water, boats a bit dusty from sitting.Or should i just blow off Then Acetone then wire wheel with fine bristles.. so your saying tooth brush without out acetone ,Just dry ? Rite before i start welding ? Wayne

Hi Kevin,, Do YOU think my power supply [ sp-130t ] 220 unit is not going to be enough to heat? Should i preheat the aluminum [ 18 gauge some is a little thicker] . And should i also clean with acetone after SS wire brushing area to be welded ? ... It's over cast now , maybe should wait for sunny da...

Hi Guys, picked up my .035 1 lb spool of 5356 . with some new tips.Made it to Airgas , Salesmen said going thicker would help with pushing wire through . I believe one of you guys said to go thicker also. I will get back with results soon ,hopefully this weekend i'll get some free time to mess aroun...

Hi Guys ,, Thanks for replies so quick. I made a mistake on model number it's a SP-130T 220 UNIT. probably doesn't matter . But i hear yea it might be a pain in BACK SIDE . But the welds do not need to look pretty anyways .The welds look like fricken bubble gum from the factory. So your saying go wi...

Hi Guys , I am going to attempt fixing some cracks on my 84 Westcoaster tinny and would like to know which wire to use in my Lincoln SP-130t ,this unit is the early 220 unit. I plan on getting a teflon or plastic liner ,possibly different drive rollers " think i read somewhere to use U groove d...

I'm CURIOUS ,,When welding up the reverse chine in the pic..Are you guys preheating that material to bend as welded or what's the method and what grade aluminum if you don't mind me asking ...Thanks Wayne
