Message: [QUOTE="ja_cain, post: 1463005, member: 11928"] Joe is right about just butt welding thin walled tubing. The swagelok orbital welder does autogenous with a backside purge. Get a dual outlet regulator if you plan on doing a lot of stainless. Money well spent. I'll try to post up some pics of half purge and half no purge on some pipe to illustrate how bad the sugaring can be. Stubby gas lens is also a good upgrade and I like the flex head torches from CK. I also have a nice water cooled swivel head from them too. Also, stainless has lower thermal conductivity than steel. In other words, you want to make sure you aren't lingering or it will get too hot quick on thinner parts. I have a hard time with this sometimes. Male sure you know how to read your colors. I use 2% lanthinated for both dc and ac welding. You can weld aluminum with it sharpened and a slightly balled tip on an inverter machine. Very versatile tungsten.
