Gas v's gasless

- gasless can do outdoors when windy.
- gasless rolls of wire is expencive. But if not using it often it saves you money on gas bottle rent.
- gasless burns hotter. So not ideal compared to gas.
- gasless leave a flux. so needs to be cleaned more than gassed welds.
- gasless gives off more splatter.
