Best Answer

Well you could, but in the end, you'd need oxygen at a good pressure.

As with many things in life, concentrate on the things you can do well, and manufacturing standard industrial products is not likely to be on the list.

You can compete with other people, such as in butchery, or perhaps in cabinet making, but making an auto - not likely.

You cannot compete against machines - even a small earth moving machine will out-perform you in cost and time.

So YES, BUT ... .

What is one use of argon?

Argon is commonly used in welding due to its inert properties that help shield the welding area from oxygen and nitrogen in the air, preventing oxidation and ensuring a clean weld.


What is the role of nitrogen in welding?

AnswerNitrogen is used to prevent porousity in the welding member by preventing oxygen and air from entering the molten metal during the welding process. Other gases are also used for this purpose such as Argon, Helium, Carbon Dioxide, and the gases given off when the flux burns away during SMAW (stick) welding.They provides a shielding effect which make a barrier between the outside oxygen and molten metal.The formation of oxide reduce the strength of the weld.


Does arc welding make ozone?

If the welding is performed in air, yes. The electrical arc will shatter oxygen molecules, some of which will make ozone. Additionally, the radiation produced by the arc, everything from soft X-rays through UV-C, will also break apart oxygen and nitrogen molecules making ozone and NOx. The UV-C and UV-B radiation is why welders wear leather coverings... not enough ozone is produced to protect.

Do have to take stick welding before tig welding?

I was taught oxy/acetylene welding first, then stick. TIG welding is just like oxy/acetylene except much easier (less variables and a foot control to make minor corrections or even pulse the weld) I would recommend you learn both. TIG welding for precise/clean welding. Stick for some larger, perhaps special welding (hard facing tools - bigger pieces of steel).
