Hi,
I'm thinking of taking up welding! I've been into cars for most of my life and have needed various parts and pieces welded over time, such as exhausts, mounts etc etc....
Now why should I pay for someone to do this when i could get a mig welder for 150 quid and do it all myself?? hopefully you guys can tell me
My next little project will be a part of an exhaust pipe. I will have 2 flanges(one for each end) that i will need to weld to a piece of pipe, prob 2.5inch diameter.
what do i need to do this and also where do i get the pipe from and how do i bend it to fit?
It is the downpipe, so it will come from the exhaust and need to bend up to the manifold.
So how do i do the above?
Where can i get normal sheet metal from?
How do i cut normal sheet metal/metal tubing(can i do it with a welder)?
I'm sure i'll have ore questions, but thats a start!
Cheers,
Paul.
