Welding Tips and Tricks

I bought a tig setup a year ago and just got a mig setup with spoolgun. I am having major problems with both and need someone to help me. I'll drive upto 4 hrs away from tyler tx if anyone can help me. I'll happily pay for the help.

A very frustrated man...

Oh. I'm trying to weld 1 inch square 1/8 wall aluminum tubing

Welcome, Casey! I know we have some Texans on the forum but not sure if they're within driving distance. If you can give a description of your situation we're happy to work through problems. What's going on?
