Hi guys,
Having used a mig for the best part of 30 years! I would like to have a go at a TIG welder. Now having not had any experience with one, I really don't know what to look for, I've done a long search on this forum for advice etc, but not really seen anything at the budget end......before anyone shouts me down, I don't have the funds for a £1000 machine, it just won't happen!!!
I did see a thread on TIGS that mentioned this machine http://www.localtoolsales.com/welding-plasma-cutters/tig-welders-wse200
Or what about this? http://www.localtoolsales.com/welding-plasma-cutters/tig-wsme-200
What's the difference between the two, and what benefits would I get with the second one?
This is in my sort of price range, and SEEMS to have all the necessary controls, but i'd like an opinion, is there anything missing (control wise) that I would need if I were to buy this?? Bare in mind this is for playing around welding up to 3mm steel, stainless, and aluminium.
Whatare your thoughts guys??
Any help much appreciated
Thanks in advance :-)
