Lol, when I started TIG, my instructor made sure as hell that I knew what rods were what materials. Although, Al ones are usually shiny as hell, while SS ones are not so much, so idk how that guy messed up lol.

Darn, I never got around to learning to weld. I attempted to make my own arc welder with a microwave oven I got for free, but not enough amps :/ It would hold a weak arc maybe if I got within 0.5mm. Needless to say, the rod would touch the plate and short out.

I suggest taking a class if you can find one available to you. I was lucky and did it through my high school. I got a years worth of training under Marty Rice's instruction and I learned a lot!!!

Hey hey my homemade fail welder was not dangerous. When it shorted I would just yank the rod away. Never had a cooling problem either. |

I remember doing some welding before when my foreman wanted to teach me. I forget exactly what equipment I was using, since there are better ways to weld now. But holy crap do I remember how I would fuck up on some of the easiest things.

Holding components together on my current hooptie. But it's okay I got them from my job so they're high performance BMW ziptie's. Add 3hp each.

I think I saw some guy's website about this. He took apart more than one microwave. I flipped through it, and then perused Miller's site for pricing. Figured he must be a mountain climber, or something...
