I need to do some welding at work. It's going to involve welding a copper strip onto a steel column. The copper is about 3mm thick and about 2.5cm square. Would a ordinary mig welder be up to the job or would I need to use a tig welder, I'm a welding virgin so any advice would be appreciated. Also If I bought a mig welder I thought I may be able to sort a few car things out in future.
Would something like this do the job or be ott? with the added bonus that it's a turbo....
