Basic TIG Welding, Done Right from Day One

"Everything You NEED to Know About TIG Welding" turns basic tig welding from guesswork into a controlled, repeatable process. Practical, field-tested instruction shows you how to set up your machine, prep joints, choose tungsten and filler, and dial AC/DC parameters for clean, consistent beads—without wasting gas, cups, or hours.

Written by senior welders and instructors with 20+ years in fabrication, motorsports, and aerospace, it distills proven shop standards into clear steps. Expect real defect photos, troubleshooting trees, and code-conscious techniques that work on mild steel, stainless, and aluminum, from thin sheet to plate. If you’re new or self-taught, this is the fastest path to precision and confidence at the torch.

• Exact starting points: electrode sizes, amperage, gas flow, AC balance, and pulse settings.
• Blueprints for puddle control, heat management, and distortion prevention on thin material.
• Quick fixes for tungsten contamination, porosity, undercut, sugaring, and crater cracks.
