I'm a welder/mechanic by trade, its done quite often but requires special equipment and not very precise like TIG welding is. Its good for heavy stuff like 1/8" or better. You would need straight argon and a spool gun, otherwise the soft aluminum wire can easily "birdnest" inside the liner and/or machine and cause a lot of problems. - Dave On Sun, Sep 9, 2012 at 11:11 PM, Jason Rhoades <Jason@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> wrote: > Yes, done it personally with good results.
