I need to have two AC fittings welded together. Does anyone have a referral. I can ship to the welder so they don't need to be local but close would be nice (SoCal). TIA, Kent

Straight tig welding will product slag on the inside.
I'd suggest you machine an aluminum sleeve that slides into both pieces, then leave a 1/8 inch gap between the two and tig the gap. . See Dustin at AJ Sandcars in El Cajon. he can do it while you wait if you have the sleeve ready. . call for an appointment first. . The him Uncle Dave sent you. . |

Sage advice and one I would have surely missed. I'll give Dustin a call Uncle Dave. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) Is this what you are talking about, Dave? |
