mig wire for tig welding steel

[Mr120]

I routinely use MIG wire for TIG on thin gauge sheet steel. Works well and isn't the nightmare that wrecks your puddle like 1/16" is. I'm sure it's mentioned here on the board elsewhere, but if you need a thicker diameter, you can double it over and make a "rod" with your drill & a vise.

Just remember to keep the mig wire off of the floor when you do this to avoid contaminating the metal.
