Hello all,
Grew up in Bakersfield Ca, around 12 yrs old Moved to Arkansas, joined the service after high school to get away, and now I'm Back lol. Dont really have any background information as to welding, remember taking a shop class along time ago, and welded tools to the side of the work stations and that was about it.
After watching a lot of videos on you tube (all of welding tips and tricks, Mr Tig, and Chucke2009) I wanted to check out tig welding, always had a curiosity but couldn't afford to go buy one, until last Christmas wife got me an Eastwood tig 200 ac/dc.
watched it collect dust due to not having any money for bottle of Argon until the first of Feb, and got to play with this unit. I had a lot of fun trying to run beads, burning holes in scrap patch panels, dunking the tungsten, and just playing around overall trying to get a good feel of welding.
If anyone is near the northeast corner of Arkansas and wouldn't mind showing me more of what im doing right vs wrong would be a great place to start! Thank you !
