bump

 

you need a tig and stainless rod i believe also what kind of stainless steel did you buy?be carefull or it will start cracking good luck i hope it works out for you!

 

304L stainless steel

 

hmm, im might be wrong, but isnt there SS welding wire for the mig welders? If not, then you'll probably have to use a tig

 

ok they do make mig welders that can weld stainless correctly, but they are very high priced. You will need a tig, because of the way the weld forms and the strength of the weld... You would need a Tig, Stainless rod (er80 i think).

if you want to drive 4 hours you could use my tig...

peace
