Hello from Austin

Hi y'all,
I've been developing a fascination with metals and metalworking for quite some time. I have a small MIG welder (Lincoln Handy MIG), but my true passion seems to be TIG. I've been watching various TIG videos, including, of course, the WTT channel. Finally, a few weeks ago I got a Precision TIG 225 and now I can try all these things myself. I am not trying to become a professional welder (I already have a different career going), just a welder that is just like a professional. :)

Hi there!

Yup, I got a 80cf cylinder or argon and some scrap aluminum. I'll start a thread in the TIG section, since I can already use some guidance...
