Hey guys, I figured I'd chime in with my vast lack of experience. I have literally never touched a welder before, until 2 weeks ago Monday. That was for a mig welder. I started tig welding 1 week ago Monday. I feel pretty happy with how far I have come in just a short time. I still have a long way to go too!!
Here is a simple overlap I did in class with a mig welder.
This is some of my first round to round mild steel 90 wall.
Some tig welded round to flat. Same 90 wall.
And here was one attempt at chrome-moly. Very thin. 30 wall. This for me was a big challenge.
Like I said. I have a long way to go. These welds were made with, Lincoln Mig 140c, and a Lincoln Tig 225.
