Step 3Flux Core Wire
I bought this 2lb spool of flux-core wire for $7 from Harbor Freight. Looks like they're asking $20 for it now.
Here's a cheaper source of welding wire. $5/lb is a decent price.
Every welding supply shop and most hardware stores will carry something like it.
I get the .030" thick stuff. You need to get tips to match your wire, $3.50 for a pack of 5.
Online welding forums debate the merits of different vendor's wire and prices.
All agree on one thing. Don't let it get rusty.
If you've got a big spool you can reload the little ones like this.
