When I purchased my welder I didn't buy any aluminum supplys becouse I figured it would be quite awhile until I'm ready to tackle it.I started playing with some scrap aluminum and this Syncrowave 250 is just blowing me away with what it will do.I've been doing but and corner welds on .090 without any filler.I tryed a T joint but its not cuttin the mustard without filler.I would apreciate it if some one could give me some advice on rods.I don't know what grade the Aluminum I have is so an all around rod would be nice if there is such a thing.What I will be working with ranges in thicknes from .030 to .090.If I buy aluminum I would want a grade thats soft and bendable.Also I wonder if any one knows why rods very in price so much acording to diamiter.I saw 36" 5356 rods $2.75 per LB for 5/32 to $13.75 per LB for .030.A pounds a pound regardless of diameter.It woud seem it costs more to snip the wire to 36" lengths than the wire itself costs.
