Anyone know a business in spokane that can weld aluminum (as in what the frame is made out of)?

I have a very small piece that needs to be tacked back on.

what did you do NOW??

woodpecker · 06-30-2009, 10:16 PM

You dont want to know. But I cried a little...and I have a few owies.

Wild Angel · 06-30-2009, 10:23 PM

as long as it is only a few owies and your okay...the bike can be patched...humans also just ask Kolat, and Kurt, they have many patches some more then others...they are the lucky ones to be patchable...

Play safe man Hate to hear of downers...

Let me know if you can't find anyone. We've got an aluminum feed spoolgun for our wire feed so if you just need something tacked on that shouldn't be too hard.

We have one at work also, and I googled how to weld aluminum a while back so I think I'm pretty qualified.

Yeah but you're a gimp! I never said I'm super good with aluminum, but I'd certainly be able to do a few tack welds if he can't find anyone

I have a small shop in town with a tig welder and the best guy I have ever seen use one is one of my partners. He has just about every certificate ever as well. The guy is a machine when it comes to tig welding.

FFF welded my swingarm and made it look purdy. You will have to blow him though. I still have stretch marks around my mouth.
