welder rental?
is there any way you can rent a welder? i know some people that might have one but it might be easier to rent one for the right price. i just want to do some exhaust work that i can't seem to get any shops to put a 2' 3" pipe after the y to the catback so i'm going to try to do it myself. all i need is a short 3" pipe and bend it a little then weld it on. is there anywhere i could rent a welder?

Yeah, I rented an arc welder from a tool shop. (welding on LCA relocation brackets). Or course I couldn't do it for **** and ended up getting a local shop to do it better... Oh well.

I'm "renting" a flux-core wire MIG from a fellow gear-head...

I bought my flux core for $200.00 bucks to do the small thing including exhaust.
If they charge you any where near that, just buy one from Homedepot or Walmart.
Now heavier welders cooooost, so I can see renting those.
