first ever TIG attemps

[vlima]

Hello.

this are my first ever TIG attemps (still fresh).
I was surprised and marveled how smooth it is to TIG weld, i loved it ...... no sound, no sparks, no smoke.
Im starting without filler rods, only trying to control the puddle, i will try to get some rods soon and hope i can make decent welds.
This is on mild steel.

Looks good to me m8,, i have been advised on getting a tig rather than a mig for doing Aluminium but i have never tried tig,, how much experience have you got with other welding types,,

What type machine have you got and how easy was it to do what you have because that is a great 1st go ,,

Cheers

Hi
I ve got a DC 180 amps from ebay, so i can`t weld aluminium (only with AC current), I have experience in MMA and this is my first TIGS ,so its not as dificult as i thought. I think when i try to add filler wire it becomes more difficult to synchronize movements.
