SHERMAN TANK:
Looking for advice on welding.

1. I've never done it before, is it difficult, is it advisable??

2. Lots of welders, what type do i need help me restore my series 3?

3. What brand should i get/avoid?

4. Is there any for sale, within reason, i'm working to a tight budget.


Many Thanks

My advice would be to go on a welding course first that way you will get all the right advice & learn the correct method's, I have seen lots of people weld to bits of metal together & then be able to pull them apart  :shock:

good advice!

I would also suggest that you go for a mig welder! Much easier to use on thin stuff like landrover chassis :wink:

Cheers

Try Screwfix I just brought an 130amp no-gas mig welder for £99 cheapest similar alternative was £199 at machine mart.

SHERMAN TANK:
Cheers lads, guess i should start looking for courses.

wasn't overly keen on just going for it myself, without any proper training.
