New to welding 7

[yaston4]

Hello all,

I am a mechanical engineer by profession, I am planning a kit car building projech which will involved welding to learn and improve my skills. I would like to carry out the welding myself and therefore will need to learn as much as I can, does anyone have any experience with welding for automotive, what type of welding is best and suggestions/advice for me.

Thanks

Thanks everyone, Tmoose, yes I was referring to a carbon arc torch, sorry for my bad use of terminology.

Interesting thread. However, it really belongs over in forum1528, doesn't it?
