Used this during 2 different projects (had to literally cut the whole front clip off a 3rd gen camaro, and the last time was about 2 months ago to repair a load of cracked/broken blades and tools at this guy's farm) w/ a combined use of 2 oxygen and 1 acetylene tank.
This is a great tool in the right hand's....Can cut through metal like a hot knife through butter, heat it for bending, and weld it together.
NEW: $299.99

ive looked at the welder myself. but im sure im so spoiled by the real tig at work it wont matter

Re: will this work??
 

I just need to know if it will handle what I need it for, manifolds and headers. If it can work with that, then itll work for my other plans.

Re: will this work??
 

Yes it will work...christ...you want us to come over and strike a arc for you and make the damn maifold..scratch start an arc that is.

Re: will this work??
 

Nope, I just needed to know before I bought something I couldnt use lol.

Re: will this work??
 

It's a welder....it's welds metal...you have metal that needs to be welded...what else do you need to know.

Re: will this work??
 

lol no ----, I meant with thickness, strength of the welds and penetration with certain metals and how thick they are.
