    Just curious why RG-60? For that being clean pin steel, why not use 70s-2 probably much better results that way. Cleaner, and a lot more solid. Just food for thought. PS: I've probably answered my own question to you, being probably on a farm rg60 and 45 is more than likely laying all around the shop for oxygen acetylene welding. 70s-6 and 70s-2 are essentially their equivalents more or less for TIG, the rod is supercheap. I think you'll like it a lot more.

    I really appreciate the advice I will try to pick 70s-2 up tomorrow at my local welding supply. As I remember I asked them at the welding supply years ago what filler rod do I need and they said RG-60. Thank You!

    Mr. Cheaney, your eye to brain to hand coordination, is simply amazing, it seems like you are more of a machine, than man at times, but, I do appreciate you showing the booboos and how to fix them. It gives us rookies a feeling, that we may have a chance to aspire to your level someday. As always, great video, keep them coming. Thank you

    Those tools looked similar to my jr high shop class about 1966. No telling how old they really go back. A kid with a barrel knife can oops real easy and cut clean through the project.
