ding means less warpage and lots more sanding. But my takeaway is for someone like me who lacks the skill and steady hands for TIG welding, don’t even consider Chuck’s laser welder. From: AF On Behalf Of Chuck McCown via AF Sent: Monday, March 25, 2024 10:15 AM To: Cameron Crum Cc: Ch

Re: [AFMUG] OT Laser Welder

it to just "shopping", I get prices ranging from $500 to over $50K. I presume the issues are power, size, and what else? We have a friend who welds for his business and has quite an assortment of welding equipment. Where would I send him if he's interested? bp On 3/25/2024 8:1
