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.
