I bought my Argon bottle from Indianna Oxygen. Free shipping and a lot
cheaper than local to Calif.

I have a little Hobart (135) that I bought to build my shop.
It's only had cored wire in it - never had shielding gas as
I was working outside.

So I don't know first hand.
But I'm curious about what I've read...

Is the quality of a gas shielded weld all that much better than it
is worth the expense?

I use flux core in the mig welder but bought the argon cylinder for the
aluminum spool gun.
