![]() I tig'd mine all the way, as ive never used a mig welder before, only tig. I didn't have anay probs, apart from it being slow, but it didnt really bother me.

![]() I used tig on my chassis and wishbones. Simply because thats was the only welding set I could get for free. Its very relaxing, if nothing else. Although required two hands does mean you tend to need a lot of clamps etc to hold things in place.

![]() Just to be different I arc welded mine. I think you get a much deeper, stronger weld on thick gauge material with arc - it's a debate that has been had many times now

![]() I started with the TIG ..... Soon got bored !! Me all over, i'm afraid
![]() Dragged the MIG out PDQ ![]() Enoch Looking at your build diary .... Looks like you are doing a darn fine job with your trusty Arc welder ![]() ![]() If I had some decent electrodes to hand, would have used the stick welder on some of the heavier stuff myself. I still enjoy stick welding & don't have a lot of chance to do so, as often as I used too.

![]() I also TIG welded everything from chassis to wish bones & uprights. it didnt take a long time & i have no spatter & will not have to grind any joints at all not even the ones on the outside where the side panels go so i think it turned out realy well . TIG is king
