It's time to upgrade my welder from fluxcore to gas; where is the best place to get the gas tank locally, and where is the cheapest place to get my shielding gas filled?

i need a sandblaster (place, not tool) to clean up a rusted out trailer wheel that @wngrog sold me.


Any body know of a good place?

I'm cheap, so I run straight CO2. It's about 1/2 the cost per tank and last ten times longer than argon/co2 mix. And it burns hotter, which is nice for a 110 machine.

I get mine refilled at a fire extinguisher shop.

I just bought one from HF. I'm still trying to work out the bugs. I'm interested if you find someone local; I might wa t to get my body blasted on the 40.

I got my setup at Nexair off Hwy 80 in Pearl. I shopped around at a few places and that was the cheapest. If I remember correctly my cylinder is an 80cf and I'm running c75 (75% argon, 25% CO2). The whole deal was a little under 200 bucks (I bought the cylinder instead of renting it) and I think it costs around 25 bucks to refill. I've done a decent bit of welding since I got it a little over a year ago and I'm just a little under half full.

Thanks. I was looking at them too. I thought about buying a small cylinder on CL or the like.

He pancaked the dude between the Brinks truck & getaway vehicle. His leg was left dangling pretty bad.

Saw this cool cruiser today. "Follow the hound" adventure photography I think is what it says on the side.

Met these guys in Fondren this afternoon. The white 78 (hope that's right) is almost done getting a transmission rebuild at Mr. Transmission here in Jackson. Water under the bridge. @FollowTheHound is headed to NOLA in the next day or so when the truck is done. The yellow 75 needs an inner axle seal so I refereed them to @offr0adlim0 for that. Argentina. Holly s*** I'm jealous.

 

[offr0adlim0]

Can't wait to meet these guys in the AM. They will be back on the road and in New Oleans by supper.

 

[wngrog]

I think I will ride down. What time they coming by?
