    Any of you guys can tig weld ?

    So I had this bright stupid idea and I need someone to weld a sear to another . its all cut and ready to go but I dont have a tig and heat control is a factor.

    The BT egrips ALMOST fit on a 68 carbine. Only problem is the sear is to small and to far forward . so I have it measured and cut. I need to weld the 68 carbine sear half to the etrigger BT sear on the rear hammer side. My automotive tig welder isnt used to such small detail parts. He usually does brackets and such for me and he wont do this

        Just be aware, the sear is going to be annealed and will need to be be rehardened and tempered afterwards.

            The setup to hold everything in place will be more critical than the skill of the person welding.

            Threaded plate with couple of screws and plate to secure all the parts. The big question will be is there enough space for the tig arc to weld only the sear and not the bracket holding.
