I might go to the metal shop and pick up some scraps and have a try at stainless. Would be useful as I want to make an exhaust for my Corsa soon

ed if you can weld mild steel you can weld stainless it just runs abit slower and you gotta push abit more with the wire (tig welding). Alu is easier than stainless really, aslong as u got a good AC tig set then your sound.

agree with that, once you have had arc eye you avoid having it again. The only time I dont wear a mask is spot welding, just close my eyes or look away
