I don't know if my previous question went through. I MIG and TIG steel sculptures. I am looking for advice on cleaners and sealers for ferrous metals. I have used cold patinas (I am unable to use a torch right now -- this may change), and Permalac with a wax coating. The result indoors and out has been rust. I can accept a certain amount of rust, but I would rather not.

This May I finished my first year attending SUNY Delhi's Welding Technology degree program. I am currently looking for a summer internship/apprenticeship in New York City and perhaps someone could point me towards a shop that might be interested. While I am developing my skills as a welder in class, I know that the real test of my abilities will come from daily practice working in the shop.

Ok. So I have an old tig setup, old craftsman ac arc welder with an old miller hf arc starter, foot pedal, 300 amp water cooled tig torch. Can I use this to weld silver jewelry? Really small jewelry,

Here's acouple roses I made using TIG welding. No frame of any kind was used. Just weld. The petals were brushed with a brass brush while still hot to give them a kind of antique bronze look.
