Aluminum Welders?
Jun 12, 2008 by hottnanny01 | Posted in Boats & Boating
I have a puncture in the bottom of my boat and I am looking for a welder that specifically welds aluminum. I live in the Racine Area. Can anyone help? Say thank you you
Get the yellow pages out - look up the number of a boutique that sells welding equipment- ask them for the closest location of a shop that does aluminum welding and that does stock work. They would be the ones that will know .

It takes much pratice to become stock at welding aluminum. You need a tig or mig welder which are expensive and the supplies are also expensive. Would be cheaper to have a good welder do this for you that is already set up to juncture aluminum. Where I live,

More info needed. What take the measure of boat: small craft Alm fishing boat or a River Jet boat that has thick plates. Thick alm plates are easy as pie to weld where as the thin stuff "blows" holes in it easily. Definitely do not have an amateur business on this

Almost anyone that is listed in the phone enlist as a welder can weld aluminum. Just gotta call and ask.
No more information needed and it's not too thin to weld.

Most gismo or welding shops have MIG or TIG machines and people who can repair your boat.

Repair of 12 foot aluminum boat.?
Feb 04, 2175 by cactusajw | Posted in Boats & Boating
I recently took my row yacht on the water for the first time. I found two problems with the boat. The first one is the seams at the front of the boat on the bottom, there is a very small leak there. The only way I can think of now is to have it welded.
Small craft LEAK, I had a bad one, my rivets leaked and i had a crack on the front of my boat. I am a certified welder and belief me i tryed it all to keep from having to weld it. I tryed to use hot glue, didn't work but a week. I tryed JB connect.

Who makes the best welding machines?

I am looking into buying a welding apparatus and i have a Lincoln electric and it is hard to find the parts i need for it, plus it does not do all that i want to do with it. I am right now fixing an aluminum skiff and i need the right machine. PLEASE
Who makes the worst is just an opinion of the person answering the question. (And here comes mine) Yes Miller, Hobart, Lincoln are all significant machines. Me, I prefer the Thermal Arc machine. I have used one (every day 6 days/week) for about ten years

What is the best size prop for my boat?Stainless steel?

I have a 70hp evinrude on a 15' aluma unite bass boat.The prop that is on there now is 13 1/4 x 17 aluminum.
If you can get a skiff shop to work with you it is best to try different pitch props to see which one will perform best. You get much better adeptness out of SS . For a long time I held to the belief that aluminum breaking off would protect the more expensive
