About welding:
MIG (metal inert gas) welding or MAG (metal active gas) welding is a process in which an electric arc forms between an electrode and a metal workpiece, heating the metals and causing them to melt, and be joined. MIG is the easiest to access, and the most common type of welding technique needed for welding projects with general purposes at home and DIY.
