need a powerful welder

[Spektrewing386]

I need someone with a welder capable of welding 1/4" steel. My welder isnt powerful enough to go that thick. The piece will already be tack welded together and the steel is 1/4" thick so no worry of blowing through. It should just be about 3 different lines to weld, each about 5 inches long. I will compensate you for your time. Its just a little piece that should take like 3 minutes to weld once set up.


Preferably someone within 15 miles of the marietta/kennesaw area.
Any takers?

find a mom and pop exhaust shop, they may have the equipment to weld it up. but just out of curiosity, why cant your welder weld 1/4" metal?

I'm in East Atlanta, I'd be glad to help you out, although its a bit further than 15 miles. I'll be around the house most of the day tomorrow if you're interested.

It takes quite a large welder to penetrate 1/4" steel. At least a 250 amp.

well that depends on how many welds you are willing to layer on top of each other(beveling the edges)

mines 88 amps. im still drilling the holes right now, so maybe tomorrow.

Mig Pak 10 is what it says on the front

I've read about "Making your own welder" using a bunch of Microwave power transformers - going backwards of course.

If you're adventurous enough (Stupid? lol) you can make your own for cheap.
