Roll bar welding what is best? in NW.
Just a general question, what would you prefer when it comes to welding your roll bar, MIG or TIG.
I am talking of 45mm x 2.6mm wall. I can only do MIG and last time had to keep waiting for my welder to cool down so had stops and starts.
I am thinking of getting my replacement TIG'd hence the question really as I thought, it would be a better weld, but I guess that is down to the
skill of the operator.
Any professional welders in the NW area?

Welderman is your man... though he's up to his arm-pits in dirty nappies these days I believe.
I can only MiG and even that isn't good. I suspect half the reason TiG welds are better, is that only better skilled welders move on from MiG to
do it in the first place; So there aren'tmany numpties like me doing it.

Hi Joe;
Not seen much of you in here, I had assumed your new baby would be keeping you very busy and giving you very little play time so had decided to leave
you alone. I can just about remember what a life changing period it was when we had our first!
I have to drill the bottom tube for harness bushes next and hope to have that done this week. It takes me forever with my own commitments and the
cold weather.

It's a life changing moment I tell ya, but I must say its a lot easier the third time round 
I'm just lurking on the site, not done a thing on my own car in weeks, did a bit onFriday and made a complete balls up, probably because
I've not done Owt but change nappies and make bottles up lol
Thank's, Joe
