A community for all welders and all processes including brazing. If you've never welded before but want to get started, ask questions. If you're an experienced hobbyist, show off your projects. If you're a professional show off your projects, answer questions, and encourage beginners and hobbyists alike.

RULES:

  1. All Lemmy.ca rules apply here.

  2. Everyone (see rule 98) is welcome.

  3. There is no best process, only the best process for the welder and application in question. Help each other, don't criticize or judge.

  4. If you’ve seen a question 100 times answer it the 101st time or ignore it. Even better, write a complete, detailed answer and suggest that the mod(s) pin it to the community.

[Did you actually think there were 98 rules?]

  1. If you present something as fact and are asked to provide proof or a source provide proof or a source. Proof must be from a reliable source. If you fail to provide proof or a source your post or comment may be removed.

  2. Don’t be a dick. Yes, this is a catch-all rule.

  3. The mod(s) have the final say.

The MigMaster 253 is an amazing welder. It's designed for use on a factory or shop floor so it comes with small, hard wheels. Those factory wheels were not up to the job of working in my sea can workshop or from the bucket on my tractor. It used to get stuck when I tried to roll it over an electrical cord or even a nail. I took off the factory wheels and replaced them with large, pneumatic wheels. Now I can push it over 2x4s if I need to and it is much easier to roll out over the threshold of the door and into the bucket of my tractor.
