Re: Help in deciding which tig welder to buy

Thanks for your inputs. I looked up the PRIMEWELD TIG225X but it seems to be unavailable. It does look like it has a good review. I initially purchased an AHP 200X but received a 201XD instead and it was DOA. The company said it was the same machine only the newest version. It had a very good review...

Good Afternoon All

Hello everyone. I'm a hobbyist who loves to do a little bit of everything. I have done a little bit of mig welding and plasma cutting. I am currently interested in learning how to tig weld and looking into getting an AC/DC tig welder. I hope to learn from your experiences. Thank you all.
