• The Biplane Forum is a large global active community of biplane builders, owners and pilots. From Pitts to Skybolts, to older barnstormers, all types are welcome. In addition to our active community, our content boasts exhaustive technical information which is often sought after for projects and maintenance. This information has accumulated over the 12+ years the forum has been in existence.

    The Biplane Forum is a private community. Subscriptions are only $49.99/year or $6.99/month to gain access to this great community and unmatched source of information not found anywhere else on the web. We are also a great resource for non biplane users, since many GA aircraft are built the same way (fabric and tube construction). Annual membership also comes with two BiplaneForum.com decals.

Normally when I welded gas tank repairs I had 2 cylinders of Pure Argon, one to purge/fill the gas tank, the other to TIG weld with. I only have one cylinder of pure Argon now, don't want to pay a year lease on a 2nd anymore. I also have 25% Argon/CO2 mix for the Mig welder. Anyone know if I could use the 25% for the purge?
