Hello Everyone,

I live in Eugene Oregon and am a hobby/artist welder/blacksmith. I have done stick and MIG welding for a few years and just picked up my first TIG machine. Been working with it for about a week and have to admit I wonder why I bought it. A lot harder to do than MIG or Stick. My hope is I get better and use it more in my art and blacksmithing.

My art is primarily made from recycled parts from farm equipment and even VW's. I have attatched a couple for you to see.

Looking forward to learning from all of you. In terms of TIG any suggestions you have for a newbee is also appreciated.

Take care, Gimpl

Welcome, I too am a new member.
That Bell thing is pretty cool for sure. Bet it sounds cool when struck.
