How to Buy Welding Wire

Welding dates back to the Iron Age and Bronze Age in the Middle East and Europe. There was a major surge during World War 1. Then, in the 1920s, there were many advances in welding technology. Whether you're an amateur welder or a highly skilled professional, you need a good source for your supplies.
