unitized my gas system today and tightened up my op rod guide.

I preheated mine with a propane torch, then mig welded with ER308L 0.035 wire. No warpage and no excessive heat into the base metal. The mig allows for fast deposition of metal, and its critical the settings and preheat are correct in order that it can be done very fast. I've also done it with tig, but prefer the mig because I can get the same results faster.
 
Chalk River. Would you be able to pass on the name and contact info for your welder? I live close to chalk river and have been looking to get my gas system unitized locally as well. Pm if thats preferred.

Thanks
Derek

Not bad me & the Doc have seen worse!

hey hey, nice to see my barrel assembly put to use!
you could've atleast post good pictures, this just doesn't do justice to the quality of the weld. I still speak to the guy, even though he did not follow my instructions. I insisted on the 3 welds. He felt a continuous top one was better.

Sorry chemo I didn't want to mention any name's.
And I am in total agreement with you about asking some one to do 1 thing then they end up thinking they know better and start doing there own thing.
