Hi all:2tsup: ,
I dont really know much about welding so ill try and explain this as best I can.
I need to weld a new section of floor into a '71 Beetle. The panel is about 450 x 250 mm and it is 2mm thick.
What is the best welder to use for this job? I have an arc welder (I dont know how good it is - I think the lowest amp. is about 40 and the highest is about 120) Can I use the arc welder or do I have to get my hands on a MIG (or some other type??).
If I can use my arc welder, what are the best electrodes to use? And what amp. setting should I use?
Many Thanks,
Nate
