BIG SNIP

I end up with about 6 barrels of 6061 turnings avery month or so and I'd
like to do the same with some or all of it.

Thinking about using a 500 amp welding power source and some graphite, any
thoughts ?


Hey PT,

To do what ???? Too much current to EDM. do you have some idea of a
way to melt the 6061 with it?


I can turn the amprage down to as low as a couple of amps.
