Default RE: Worlds first/only TITANIUM flounder gig

Mullethead (1/18/2010)Nice ! That gig will out live all of us

I say ask top dollar - High quality titanium welding is pretty exotic and not a common skill.

We have an R&D program with the Office of Naval reseach on the use of Titanium for ship's hull struture- maybe I could get one of our welds to whip me up one of those bad boys.

Which alloy? they build an entire fishing vessel out of titanium in Japan (CP grade 2 alloy)
I believe this is grade 2 titanium. I would have to look at my invoice to be sure. Im sure one of your guys could weld one up for you, but do they have the materials? I do. I have plenty left... I bought enought for at least 40 gigs... Only way to make it economical is buy in bulk
