Hello fellow welders I am a pipe fitter/ steam fitter of steam fitters local 602 of Washington DC i do not weld every day but I started on pipe running 6010 5P+ uphill and down hill and low high (7018) . I have my Structural certification in Washington DC . I have all ways wanted to learn how to tig weld so I got a really good deal on a Vulcan Leo tig 200 from harbor freight when they had to pull them off the self for what ever reason it’s not the best machine and goes through a ton of argon due to it not having any pre or post flow control and this is making me want to get a little nicer machine . But anyway I am excited to join this group to maybe get some help with my tig welding process.

Thank you
Nick Maiers
