I have used the whole freaking tank of Welder shielding gas I got from Zilla - used a whole roll of wire too!
Question: Where should I go get this welding tank filled?
Any chance they are open on Saturday mornings?

Lincoln 140 MIG and it is amazing. Cannot believe someone who never welded is puting down some OK beads.

Re: Welding Tank Refill
Have you played with flux-core wire yet? It's a tad bit messier but you don't have to deal with gas at all.

Re: Welding Tank Refill
My welder came with a roll of Flux but had not tried it yet. If I couldn't get my tank filled on a Saturday, I definitely would have tried it. I am toying with selling it after making my rear seat bracket in the next month or so. I do not see using it after my Truck is completed.

Re: Welding Tank Refill
As an addition, Airgas is a pretty good place to deal with on welding supplies.
You thinking about selling your welder or the flux-core wire? Don't sell the welder, they are sooo handy for a lot of things.
I just "graduated" from flux-core wire to using gas and I prefer the gas myself. Make sure you shut the tank valve off when not in use...that's an expensive mistake.

Re: Welding Tank Refill
I am not sure I will use the welder after next month but who knows.
I am guilty of leaving the tank open overnight or longer - that is half the reason I needed to fill the tank. I have not forgot since
