Stick welding off lincoln electric site:


Some limits of stick welding are:


Welding thin materials (less than 18-gauge steel) may be difficult or impossible.
Marginal for welding aluminum. It takes a high degree of operator skill to weld aluminum with the stick process.
You must clean the slag off the weld.
Stick is a slower process than MIG.

i just went to a metal shop and got him to cut me a certain size sheet of aluminum, i dont even know what thickness, i just used what looked right. and i had a machine shop weld it on using a low temp welder.

Hell yeah! Trubo Dan's IC in awesome! How in the world can you get it to clean and shine like that. Even the fins are clean :)

im in canada its like 35 bucks.

Shinning was probly achieved with hand sanding with all 10 grits working way to like 400 wet sand then buff on buffing wheel. about 2 hours of owrk and youll be there...

I'm using the Audi 5000 IC as a front mount. My end tanks cost me $90. I had the end tanks made for me by the machine shop. They're the same cats that made my adapter plate ($20).
