Re: WTB: Welder

TIG will have much more of a learning curve than MIG. They also have very different uses. Get the handler 140, then if you decide you need to do aluminum, then get an ac/dc TIG. Those TIGs will need some options if you are going to be doing much aluminum, the aircooled torches get really hot. The few times you would probably do aluminum just have somebody else do it. Most welding will probably be steel.
