Stupid question - are the sliders made of aluminum or magnesium? It looks like magnesium to me.

The zokes I have seen are magnesium.

Phast Phil Ketchum just had his Zokes welded at Hi Tech Welding in Lee Summit, MO. I called Bill there and he told me they use Thermo Coat Welco ERAZ61A 1/16" magnesium wire to TIG weld with. I have ordered some wire and I will look for Merlins post.

Thanks all,

Teddy
