When i get around to finally buying a mig (a clarke 160 maybe) I was planning on running it off a pub size CO2 bottle. However i was wondering if i could later add the option of adding on an Argon bottle. So I assume i would need some sort of mixing device if i wanted to control the mixture of gases, if i wanted a 75/25% mix or any mix for that matter. Or with a home mig is it a matter of either/or, but not a mix of both. I see at college a gas mix, but they have a large industrial type set up.
Obviously with the oxy accetylene the torch is a place where some sort of flow/mix can be done, but can any mixing like this be done on a mig ?
I apologize in advance if this is some sort of dumb question that is obvious and I have just not thought out.
