Hi and Thanks you for listening to episode 31 of the Welding Tips and Tricks Podcast! \\xa0We thought it would be fun to go back to some of the basics of Mig welding like we did with Tig but we went a little further than just the basics. \\xa0Just about everyone knows how to mig but you might just pick up a few things in this episode that could really step up your game. \\xa0So go ahead download, pop those earbuds in, hit play, drop your hood, and enjoy!
