Yeah, if funds had no bottom Blue beats.
Funny thing though.... I have tried to dang near give-away an old 440 and nobobdy wants it...donno? I guess people have mixed things up thinking old means bad or poor quality. A rock is a rock is a rock. IMHO

Well if you want to give it away........
Here is a not so good looking weld... It is on my truck:bang BUT.... I didn't do it and it will soon be removed... Stupid death wobble:kick:
where's the buzzard? lol
I've always wanted to know what the little brown globs are that are within the weld when using a mig wire welder? Is it the sheilding gas actually burning into the metal? Looks like someone took a brown crayon and make dots every couple inches on some of my welds.
Can any tig welder weld aluminum?
A buddy of mine bought a lincoln unit off a contractor in need of cash. Its a pretty darn expensive unit that was hardly ever used.
We got the gas bottle hooked to it & started using the aluminum rods that we needed and just couldnt get anywhere with the aluminum. someone came and looked at our unit and said it "can't weld aluminum"
It does fine on mild steel. But with aluminum it either melts the tungsten tip to the metal or burns a hole through it.
Short answer, no.
Green tipped pure tungsten and high frequency are two absolutes with welding aluminum. Start with thicker material......trust me :bang
