Hi,
Can I practice TIG welding without gas on a piece of steel?
Or will this damage the tungsten?
Paul.
In a word No.
The tungsten will just oxidise and disappear in a puff of smoke, I'm afraid if you want to tig weld you'll have to buy, rent or borrow a pure argon cylinder.

You can still use your machine for MMA remember
