Best cylinder for me

[gj1994]

Ive been doing welding for about 2 years now, and finally got a Mig welder. I dont really understand the cylinder situation except for that you have disposable one's and the proper rental one's.

I would imagine that i would use quite abit of the welder and using disposable cylinders would cost me a fortune, so basically whats the best move for me to do? cheers geth

look at the gas section, look for rent free you may or maynot find one near you there is also the option of a pub bottle pure Co2 only though not mixed
dispossible bottles only supply around 10 mins of welding tome

ok cheers, but pure Co2 isnt as good as Argon/Co2 on welding thinner metals?

this is true but ive welded cars with it no problem
it all boils down to what you want, rental no rental Co2=cheap gas
