Did the post disappear or just not get answered Gene? I remember several posts re the stick welding body parts.

Stick welding sheet metal is tricky. Small welding rod and low amps. Some people like ac welder over a dc welder for this type of welding.

I think I replied to it as well suggesting MIG for the process correct? Just trying to pin it down so I can report the missing post.

Here is the post I was referring to. It also addresses sheet metal stick welding.

A search of sheet metal took me to the above link. Try searching by key words for your post, if you still cannot find it let me know.

Yea I did not think the stic would be what I would need to do this.I figure somewhere down the line when I become a fair welder I will have to make a choice between a new stick or the mig.Right now the mig and tig seem way beyond my ability!! Thanks---Gene

Keep in mind that the MIG and TIG can also do stick welding.

Oh my I did not realize that! That makes me feel better about it.

Check the specs on the unit you're interested in. I'm pretty sure they all (MIG and TIG) do both.

Well I guess for right now I'm gonna stick with the stick and will look at mig down the road
