Gas or gas-less mig

[Robert Mullins]

Stick weld stainless steel?
Good profile, clean, bright shiny weld, very little spatter, I would every time

Clamps for bricklayers,what have you in mind,being nosey of course

Put your money on:
1) Corner profiles
2) Brick braces
3) ?

Either way stainless or galv not going to be necessary considerations for welding, make the items using mild steel and send them off for coating later if you want better protection than a simple paint finish. Galv would be fine for clamps but you could easily start off with painted items. For prototyping a Clarke MIG machine in the right hands is more than up to task of joining a couple of bits of mild steel with either gas or no gas.

Couldn’t agree more- would go as far to say it’s a waist of time and money!

Why can't you just mig the stainless...granted it won't look like a performance exhaust but it's a brick tool so does it matter what it looks like as long as it works. You can always polish the welds if you want it to look pretty?
