Currently waiting for many of the materials for the stuff I need to make to arrive so I’ve just been practicing every chance I have with the TIG.
And then I bought another welder yesterday! Stoked for this, believe it or not all the MIG welding I’ve done in-house so far has been with my cheap harbor freight welder (albeit with high quality everything else). There’s a lot of tricks I came up with to maximize that little welder’s capability but I still had to go borrow time on a better machine when I had anything thicker to weld.
Scored this Hobart 210 off Craigslist, new and never used. It plugs into 115 or 230 and auto-adjusts accordingly, can do any thickness I’ll run into in automotive applications with ease, and these things are dead nuts reliable.
