Thursday Tech Tip: MIG Welding Sheet Metal for Restoration Work

Welding sheet metal can be a tough job, especially with today’s buzz box type welding machines.

Frustration can, and will set in, after you make a couple of failed attempts at patching an area of sheet metal.

We found a do-it-yourself home video that explains how to tackle welding sheet metal with decent results.

The welder explains how to weld sheet metal in the horizontal and  vertical positions, and the methods and benefits of each.

If a picture is worth a thousand words, then a video must be worth a million words.
