Rob Browne Posted July 31, 2008 Share Posted July 31, 2008 Stick, Oxy, MIG and the forge :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maddog Posted August 18, 2008 Share Posted August 18, 2008 I use stick, oxy acetylene , & forge welding. Stick and acetylene are both very versatile and the equipment is comparatively cheap as compared to a decent mig setup. Stick will do very heavy welds, its easy to change out and theres a wide variety of rods. Mig is definitely cleaner, easier to master and superior in production mode. For the small stuff I use the oxy acetylene. The torch is useful for a whole lot of other things too. For cutting and heating I have an Allstates propane torch.

acoop101 Posted September 10, 2008 Share Posted September 10, 2008 TIG because it's what's usually set up and since I mainly do small jobs it takes less time to tig the project than it would to tare the system appart to set it up for stick.

toolgypsy Posted September 14, 2008 Share Posted September 14, 2008 I use a miller thunderbolt ac/dc and a oxy/ace rig for brazing and spot heat Pat Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Buffalo Posted September 14, 2008 Share Posted September 14, 2008 At home I run hf OA guages and torch, and a 110 CH wire feed. Just got a century stick machine, but need to run 220 to the shop. At "work" I use an ESAB Multi-Master for mig and stick, and try to "borrow" one of the other guys MillerMatics whenever I get the chance. The shop runs propane and Ox to a variety of torches.
