TIG welding tips for beginners that actually work

Starting TIG can feel slow and unforgiving. Everything You NEED to Know About TIG Welding cuts through noise with shop-proven guidance—so you set up correctly, read the puddle, and stack consistent, contamination‑free beads. Built by veteran TIG fabricators and instructors, it distills best practices into clear steps, checklists, and troubleshooting you can trust.

Instead of random forum advice, you get a structured path: the exact setup windows, technique cues, and defect fixes that shorten your learning curve and reduce scrap. Expect fewer tungsten dips, better gas coverage, tighter heat control, and welds that pass close inspection across steel, stainless, and aluminum.

• Setup essentials: tungsten type/grind, polarity, gas lens and cup size, flow rates, AC balance and frequency.
• Technique fundamentals: torch angle, arc length, foot‑pedal modulation, travel speed, filler timing for repeatable “dimes.”
• Rapid troubleshooting: porosity, sugaring, undercut, warpage—root causes, quick tests, and precise fixes.
