Dave A 17 Posted October 12, 2009 Fianlly getting the hang of welding. Heres a bit i did at uni using their gas less welder What type of welder are you using? Looks like that gasless welder did a pretty good job. The reason i'm asking is that I am looking for a welder and wondering if the gasless is any good. Over here welders are either 220 or 110 volt. Not sure about in the U.K. though.? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
