I don't know if you've ever watched Fitzee's Fabrication, but I like his way of welding a piece of coat hanger to the center of his small patch piece. I've tried it and it works great. Give it a shot.

Great video, can I used .030, or is it better to used .023 wire?

@ACDesignsGarage Жыл бұрын

Yes I used it for years but now since I used 0.023 I like it better, less warping and build up to grind! But 0.030 will work.
