Aspiring TIG welder needs your donations. If you can spare some scrap 4130 in any size tube or flat or bar stock please bring it to the next chapter meeting. I need material to practice welding on so scratches and dents are OK. Could use some aluminum, too. Can’t make the meeting? E-mail me and we can arrange a pick-up. Thanks.
