Got a burning question
Posted: Fri Dec 23, 2011 7:49 pm
Firstly, I am brand new to this forum, let me say howdy to everyone.
I own a Silver Jewelry Manufacturing Company. I have been trying to determine how to fuse sterling silver to fill some casting pits in pieces. I know my options are laser, pulse welder,like PUK, or Orion,but expense seems overkill. I decided to try tig welder. Bought a cheap harbor freight model, then got rest of what i needed. First test, not so impressed. Not shiney, i am not sure if argon is best sheilding gas. I just want it too work perfectly,is that too much to ask?
Aly input would be very appreciated!!!
Thanks, Alan
