Welding instructional book: Everything You NEED to Know About TIG Welding

This welding instructional book gives you a precise, step-by-step path to clean, consistent TIG results. Everything You NEED to Know About TIG Welding demystifies machine setup, torch control, and metallurgy so you can move from guesswork to repeatable process. Built by shop veterans who teach TIG daily, it condenses real production experience into plain, field-proven guidance—no fluff, just what works.

Inside, you’ll get parameter ranges by alloy and thickness; AC balance/frequency tuning for aluminum; tungsten selection and prep; cup, gas, and lens choices; and filler selection with predictable outcomes. Learn joint prep, fixturing, heat management, distortion control, and how to read the puddle with disciplined torch angle and arc length. A rigorous troubleshooting system pinpoints porosity, contamination, undercut, lack of fusion, cracking, and arc wander—then shows the exact fix. As a welding instructional book, it delivers practice frameworks and quality benchmarks that cut setup time, reduce rework, and produce inspection-ready welds for beginners and seasoned fabricators alike.

• Quick-reference setup sheets for steel, stainless, and aluminum—from thin gauge to plate—covering DCEN and AC, pulse, and foot pedal strategy.
• Visual defect ID and root-cause flowcharts to correct gas coverage, heat input, fit-up, and contamination issues fast.
• Progressive drills that build travel speed, filler rhythm, and heat control—from beads-on-plate to fillets, laps, and outside corners.
