I have a Portamig 181 and would like to ask what would be the best metals to have a go with?
I have the chance to buy any metal in any grade, size or thickness which would be the best ones to try for practise reasons?
Running my 181 with Bostrand 0.6mm wire at the moment - oh yeah on pub gas 100% Co2. Yes I know its not the best but at least I don't care how much gas I waste.
Been trying all of the settings and finding that doing thin stuff is fun (!) Prefer the thicker stuff on 0.8mm. Probably because I am using Co2 and its much hotter for thin metals.
