There is no degree needed to become a mig welder. It would be a good idea to at least take some welding instruction in high school if it is available or training at a vocational school if you can afford it. This will give you a better chance at landing a job than a person of comparable age and experience. More importantly to being good at welding is the ability to keep your mouth shut and your eyes and ears open. That way you will learn from the journeymen who are willing to teach the tricks of the trade. Rarely will they waste their time and effort on someone who already knows it all.
The wire feed welder is a MIG welder.
can weld aluminium with a mig or tig welder
A clarke mig welder is considered a top of the line welder and can be purchased at specialty welding stores or even at hardware stores like home depot or menards. They can also be bought online.
yes
there is no such thing as a gasless mig welder because mig stands for metal inert gas. you must have tubular wire which has the flux in the wire. i would say you should get some s wire to do the job
Most common and main limitation of MIG welding is that MIG welder could not weld thicker metal. If you want to know details then visit this site.
The most powerful MIG welder available for purchase is a 220V / 200AMP. Since these powerful MID welders can cost upward of $2000, hobbyist work would not require such power.
Mig (GMAW) has almost replaced Stick (SMAW) in industry. Small machines can weld thin materials and larger machines weld metals of unlimited thickness. Mig is easy to use and has less waste (no stubs) than stick. Flux core wire produces a slag covering but bare wire w/gas leaves a clean weld.

place the metal clamp on a form of metal turn the mig welder on turn the gas on know were your welding flip your shield down and then give er
MIG Small machine like Lincoln SP 135 is nice.
A number of factors go into this: base material thickness, joining material thickness, wire thickness, shielding gas composition, angle of weld, etc. The best way to determine this is to measure your material, then open your MIG welder, find the wire size of the spool, and read the chart inside of the MIG Welder door.
