Welding outside is different. Safest bet is Stick. Second option would be flux core. If you look around on ANY kind of construction that is done outside you will still see stick welding. Flux core was designed to make welding outside easier because it is harder to learn stick and the people who know ho to weld stick cost more :) So... no gas shield welding outside because of the wind. At least that is how it is thought by the book.

I first learned about this tool in a catalog; interesting to see one pop up in an offroad recovery video!

Tom, If you want a good trail welding rig, check out some of the battery ran spool guns. Back when I was checking on doing the "Merlin style" welding with a vehicle alternator or premier power welder. I got to see and try a Ready Welder before a deployment. When I got home I ordered mine. I built a heck of a trailer frame similar to what you just trail fixed. Running it with Optima batteries, I've had it for over 20 years now still going. It's a beast running 35 flux wire, with 36 v you can use it to cut or burn in over 1/4 metal. I bought a second one for a spare and aluminum welding.

Good morning I have a question does any vehicle of Matt's and his crew have a working gas gauge? It seems none of them do so far. It was a nice surprise seeing Rudy and Janelle in this video

It's a job requirement. If you have a working gauge, this isn't the team for you. Lol

Hahaha! When I saw Tom test the new generator and welder I was just thinking "but does he have some gas in it??" Then I thaugh " it's TomTom, he probably have a jug with him, and it's probably full tank already" - I was wrong... 😂

It was nice of Rudy to help you guys out of a bind.

Point of interest, harbor frieght sells a gas powered stick welder about the same size as your generator. As a guy who has been repairing equipment in the field for 30 years, get the stick machine...sticks for outside..wires for the shop

Hey Rudy! The argon gas might have worked better if the tank was vertical! The gas in the cylinder is under pressure and will go back to being a liquid. Most regulators are vapor only and won’t work with the liquid state. So next time… stand up the cylinder to be a happy welder.

Keep a roll of flux core and the knurled drive roller on hand for outside work, or use stick if you have a multimatic. Otherwise good testing before going out.
