Are Those “No Welder” Aluminum Welding Rods Actually Any Good?

One of the things that we all strive for in the garage is cheap and easy. Unfortunately, cheap and easy doesn’t always mesh together well with high-quality. At the end of the day, every job should be done with as much quality as possible. However, going to a cheaper alternative might not always end with the result that we want. However, that doesn’t say that we can’t try to get there anyway.

This time, we tune in to the world of welding. As any welder will tell you, there are a couple of barriers to entry involved with such a trade. Not only does welding require a lot of expensive equipment. After somebody has spent a pretty good budget on purchasing that equipment, the skills to learn how to do it are another investment entirely. Welding isn’t something that most people will just pick up overnight and be good at. Instead, it takes lots of learning and time investment in order to be able to become proficient in welding.

What happens, though, if somebody decides that they want to weld something without having the proper tools or skills? Surely, there has to be some sort of other invention or idea out there that will allow one to create a weld for themselves.

Fortunately, for those who find themselves in this predicament, there is an answer. Aluminum welding rods allow users to get a weld without any of the tools or experience that it would otherwise take. When all is said and done, though, how efficient are these sorts of things, and what kind of quality can we truly expect from them?

This time, yet again, Project Farm is on the task, testing out this concept and bringing us the results so that anyone so inclined to try out these aluminum welding rods for themselves can create a weld with nothing more than a simple torch at their disposal.
