@luv2flylots You are right. MIG is not an acceptable method for aircraft welding. I said that I used the MIG process on the rotisserie. I never mentioned it for aircraft. Am I missing something?
Another cool tool! For welding all that up what welding process do you use? Im guessing mig or tig? I just cant see how stick would be too maneuverable in all that. So basically what the freefloater does is cut some torquing out when your welding? Either way thanks for the update this kinda stuff is awsome.
@slab698 For welding I did a little TIG for practice, but most of the rotisserie was welded with a wire-feed MIG. Tig is really slow and I wanted to get it done. The free-floating allows for me to operate/adjust it by myself and not worry about imparting any torque on the structure while it is being welded. Thanks for the kind words!
