Finally bit the bullet and bought a TIG welder

Nice. I've been TIG welding for 20 years now. I do alot of MIG and stick welding also. As far as I'm concerned TIG is the easiest to do. I'll give you some basic tips. When TIG welding, weld upward when doing vertical welds, don't use more heat than is necessary, less is more, if your beads look dull and have any scale, you're too hot. When you lift your foot off the pedal keep your TIG nozzle pointed at the weld where you stopped to keep argon spraying on the weld as it cools, especially when tack welding. Most important is to know that welding stainless steel gives off highly carcinogenic fumes, DON'T breath that **** in! have fun and start building awesome stuff!
