When welding aluminum with a spool gun, you need to "push" through your weld, and you need to move faster than what you would compared to welding steel. You also need to give yourself around 3/8" to 1/2" gap between the tip of your spool gun and the metal that you're welding.

[@bonecrrusherSS]

Thanks for the tips!

[@dubonbonceleste17]

Thank you big help
And following

[@bonecrrusherSS]

Glad it helped!
I found out I sucked at tig welding aluminum - and I've used the spool gun for few sets of brackets now.

[@brucegalvante2870]

Are you using 110v or 220? I have the same machine only thing I have is 110v at my house

[@bonecrrusherSS]

Both of my welders are on 220.

[@iflyrcplanes35]

I have the same machine as well...mig welds excellent!!...even flux core...just ready to give the spool a try....I tell ya bud....u think u did bad...lmao....IL show ya mine...if I have a few mins to play today...IL keep ya posted

[@DanMattice]

You need gas to use spool gun?

[@bonecrrusherSS]

Yes you need argon.

[@brandonrakes6341]

That machine is only for dc tig not ac tig ac tig is needed and 100%argon for tig 200 or 205 from freight will tig aluminum

[@beege1968]

This is how not to weld aluminum 😂

[@bonecrrusherSS]

Holding my oil coolers up just fine.

[@iflyrcplanes35]

At least you tried bro...look at it this way....u may think it looks terrible...but to someone...(me) who has never welded any kind of aluminum with tig..or a spool gun....to me it looks FAN FRIGGIN TASTIC!!...and if that's just learning...u will get better...great vid tho!!
