Awesomeness! Would love to give it a try. Been a while since I’ve TIG welded. I think project farm did a couple videos on welders

Actually, it's not half bad, budd. You have some nice skills. Aluminum is a pain in tha ass no matter how much you clean it. Turn up the amps and let the arc sizzle and clean it up. Thats the best option on dirty old Aluminium.

One I started TIG and I got the hang of it. My mig welder is very lonely.😞

Got my first TIG welder last night.
Not too bad of progress for the first use today after I got some pure argon (I run CO2 in my Miller MIG).
The bolt to the plate is steel. Old stuff.
The other is two dirty aluminum housings from Carrier EcoBlue I was practicing on.
That was way harder. I wire brushed it some but it's still thin and nasty there.
The goal will be to weld aluminum intake pipe and brackets if/when I turbo that Ford Ranger.
I'll try to weld in an O2 sensor bung and install my old wide band gauge sometime soon.
