Video Request: Stainless (304)- Mig

For Christmas I would like Jody to do a video using Mig on Stainless Steel (304 is fine).
Corner, butt, and lap joints welcome, also sheet metal to thicker angle iron.
I am also most curious if good results can be obtained using 100% Ar as this is all my company will buy.
Thanks

No, there are plenty of online resources that give the recommended gas mixtures for MIGing stainless, if the company won't buy it then I hope welding isn't their main line of work

Any mig SS I’ve done was mostly 95-5 or 98-2. Or a tri mix.

Certainly can use 100% CO2 as well. Not as pretty a weld though as a mix provides
