newbie welding question
I just bought a Lincon Electric SP-135Plus. I've never welded anything. The main reason for the purcahse was to weld the z-bar bracket to the frame in my '65 GTO 4-speed conversion project (plus I figured it would be good to have a welder). As I was reading through the manual, it recommended that for welding steel larger than .105" (up to 5/16"), that I use the INNERSHILED (no shielding gas) as opposed to the standard MIG process. The bracket is 1/8". Does this sound right? I haven't even started practicing my welding yet, but if I can start with the flux core mehtod, it saves me the trouble/expense of buying CO2/Argon tank right now.
Thanks, Frank
