Yep with you there Dave, I am yet to read digital readout while using let along tweak power or wire speed 

I couldn't get the image to attach so here's take 2!I’ve just started getting back into welding and will be doing a fair bit with TIG as I’m getting my own machine in the next 6 months. There are a shit tin of good YouTube videos to follow. The Fabricator Series, Welding Tips n Tricks etc.
TIG is great for control and with AC you can do Ally too, but thick to thin is tricky and MIG is often far better.
Here’s my Jag trailing arms doing with MIG. It was an old machine but pretty good in the day. My old Uni have a Fronius MIG now and that thing is idiot proof! Should be for AUS$7500!!
Interesting concept.I'd like to build a support frame for the radiator/FMIC/Oil Cooler/Bumper that will allow me to pull off the bumper on its own or the all of them together.
Interesting concept.
Have you seen the Alphaloc intercooler pipe couplers by a guy in the US called LPSfab? I know him through (other channels) but his auto work is lovely. Quick release and give a 5° angle swing.

there’s a sample of my first attempts/ faffing about sessions with TIG welding, that’s mild steel which went quite well on the whole I thought.
I had a go with alloy tonight but that needs better gas / rods / material I think to have a chance at getting anything passable, so that can get shelved for the time being.
yesterday I picked up some excellent fodder for this welding thread, a bit of welding needed but that and a good service/tidy up and Im going to use it to run about in at the moment.
Some OCD TIG action looking very niceFrom a FB group I follow called "So you think you can weld"
