Can I do MIG on SS. I have a very small project with not more than a couple of inches of bead and it would be SS to SS about 1/16th?

I think I will try it with what I have, can't justify the cots to buy all the other stuff for for this small and personal job...just trying to turn the fixed roller wheels (2) on one end of my BBQ so I can slide it out of its hole in the outside counter.
Before I had the counter built it was not big deal, but now it is.Don

SMAW will never die, i agree. Like the vacuum tube, it has it's uses. Although there are easier and more efficient methods that are improved and accepted as industry standard."Religion is regarded by the common people as true, by the wise as false, and by the rulers as useful."

Your buddies are jeepers, if they notice, give 'em a beer. If they're golfers, they don't know what a weld is.
LOLgreat thinking.
if rust is not a problem just hit them with steel solid wire and C-25 and they will hold fine.thanks for the help
