Hi All,
I have really enjoyed lurking here and admiring the great talent on this forum. I thought it was time to join and get access to more sections, view pics and ask some of the experts a few questions. I am interested in learning metal shaping (aluminum in particular) and gas welding as well.

Welcome Justin! Don't know what part of DFW you are in, but I'm 40 minutes SE of Dallas, in Combine.

Hello Justin, welcome to the forum. I show a little of the process of aluminium welding on my youtube footage. Its not a complicated process but it requires practice. If you can weld with oxy acetylene already it will not be too hard to learn to weld aluminium.
