Brandon, I've had success running aluminum wire through my wire feed welder by changing out the stainless steel liner for a nylon one and switching the shielding gas. Cheaper than a MIG spool gun. Easier to get into tight places in your framework too. Best of luck with your re-ferb.

Funds went to ErinMillerPhotorgraphy for the moment..

Been working on the Scout, and other people vehicles to help offset the furlough pay cut which was just stopped - woohoo!

I did buy a spool gun for my welder (actually a ready welder, can run off my welder or car batteries far from civilization B) ).

What is the dimensions of your upper bed?

Thanks..

Thanks, and the furlough stopping was very short lived. Hours actually - back to part time employee :unsure:

Did a complete front and rear suspension/axles swap in two days for a guy. Couple weld pics B)

I finally got the right welder (had to send the first one back) so now I can do some aluminum.

http://www.readywelder.com/10000adp.php

It will not only attach to my MM210 welder as a spool gun for aluminum but it is also fully portable for trail repairs B)

By they way Happy Birthday!! (I hope I got that right..)

Nice looking welds. Love to get a ready welder if I ever have the funds. Been lucky enough so far when I needed welding there was always someone else along with a welder.

I've left messages with both AT and FW and neither one got back to me - guess they are busy! I'll get ahold of them eventually but a bit disappointed neither one got back to me. Looking for where to get the replacement pop up material..

Brandon,
These guys have everything and just might have it already cut to size.
