Default Welding with propane

I posted this before, but here's what you find at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oxy-fue...ng_and_cutting

"Oxy/Propane does not weld steel because it does not create a carbon dioxide shield around itself."

However, on aluminum it's a different matter, see:

http://www.tinmantech.com/html/alumi...ng_article.php

If you look at his site, he offers special tips for propane welding.
