Netters:



Has anyone explored stick welding Poly-Ethylene or propylene plastics

to say 1/16th inch thick max--- non Structural

Don I have welded both plastics. In converting my RTS bus to an RV it
has come in handy to be able to fabricate and alter your own tanks.

What you need is a small air compressor and a plastic welder. Harbor
freight has one (plastic welder) for about 30 bucks, it comes complete
with an air regulator and assorted welding rods.

I could give you some pointers if need be but, it's not too hard. If you
can weld 4130 you can certainly weld plastic. However 1/16" will require
a light touch my tanks are at least 1/8"
