I am probably going to take a class in Tig welding autobody.
I bought one of these about 15-20 years ago: http://www.eastwood.com/eastwood-s-spot-weld-gun.html It felt so cheap I have have never used it. If fact, I'm afraid to try it out. I think I'll get electrocuted! Just garbage! Feels like it's made by Playschool.
I'm relatively new here, been replacing sheet metal on my first bronco but this isn't my first project. Classic broncos has helped a great deal with info. I usually just use the site for info and don't post much. 360 4v, honestly u rubbed me a little wrong with your first reply. Seemed a little judgmental about my skill, but I figured hey, maybe he's some professional welder. I just came across your tailgate repair thread and obviously u should not give welding advice. I doubt you even know what I'm talking about. WTF. To everyone else, thanks for all your knowledge.
He is asking about a spot welder. Tig is great if you have a nice clean surface. For welding coated, dirty, rusted sheet metal the MIG and Spot welders are best.
I'm interested in this also, I'm about to replace my front floors and bed area. Wildhorses would the HF spotwelder work for this or are the tongs not long enough. Thanks
