Hey all, have tig welded quite a bit in the past, but have come upon a situation that requires me to weld a cast magnesium housing...
Any suggestions?
I know enough now, that I have to track down some magnesium filler rod. Anybody had a piece of cast magnesium burn up while welding (would rather not have that happen). Is an oven required to heat the entire piece before welding?
Also, should I use a particular setting for penetration or pulse frequency?
TIA,
Nick

I don't know much about welding, but since Mg can sustain its own fire at 3000F, I'd say that it's a job for absolute pros.
