Aluminum’s unique properties, such as high thermal conductivity, rapid heat dissipation, and its persistent oxide layer, mean ...

When I first started tinkering with cars, one of the first big hurdles was how to complete certain tasks without the ability to weld. Shaving trim holes, repairing rusty panels, or fabricating custom ...

Times change. It wasn't that long ago that if you owned a set of oxy-acetylene gas bottles for welding and cutting you would be considered to have a pretty well-equipped home shop. Maybe you ...

In the tungsten inert gas (TIG) welding process, an electric arc is struck between a refractory electrode made of tungsten and the work piece, while a shroud of inert gas, usually argon, shields the ...

TIG welding is one of those upper echelon fabrication skills that many home hobbyists hope to learn. Unlike MIG, stick, or any other form of welding, Tungsten Inert Gas (TIG) welding uses a non ...

California machine shop quadrupled output by switching from manual TIG to robotic laser welding, eliminating skilled labor bottlenecks and post-weld processing requirements.
