Default Where to get welding rods
Just wondering where everyone gets their tig welding rods. There is a local welding supply here but I would rather not deal with them. My main issue with them is they are only open short hours during the week, but I have other issues with them. I searched google but there were so many places I was hoping there were some people that got good prices and good service from somewhere.

My local shop was great. I could beat them up on prices. Now they are owned by Airgas but will still deal a bit. I have bought 10lbs boxes from www.weldingdepot.com

I use a small local shop, not sure if prices are good compared to other places but the service is great so I stick with them.
