Massive mig welder hell to move

Size?erm let me see now...its 13x17x24 inches and weighs a ton :-)

Yeah I know the mags are specifically a temp fo tack weld until you have a secure piece and then you take it away to continue the job.
Thing is they save a lot of bother making a jig and are a god send for getting a start weld on an upright box section.

Done a little bit of arc welding in the past,that didn't rock me boat. :-(

Was talking to guy today about mig welding and reckons there's a spray that you spray on the metal near the weld area,this helps to protect the shroud from the metal and stop the wire fromwelding to the copper tip.

Was he talking a load of cobblers?
