Make the contractor pay for tools. It's a tax write off for them. Most likely will get broken or stolen.

I really appreciate this. I’ve been wanting to learn TIG for awhile now ever since I learned MIG and stick welding but I didn’t know what rig to invest in. Keep up the good work👍

I find that "Buy once, cry once" is the way to go

I spent like $50 on my last one. As stuff broke, the company replaced it. I did order me a custom handle though… money well spent

Ck worldwide all day, ck9 is my go to for sanitary stainless. Small size is great for tight repairs

I have a primeweld 225 that came with everything I needed to get started, except a bottle. I love my CK torch, it has served me well.

😂 most welders get them off the job site but I won't call out no names😂😂😂😂😂

I just got a millermatic 220 ac/dc burned a fat hole but super worth so far.

Got to practice on a rig that a friend got for 50 bucks, told me, gotta be careful cuz you might get shocked now and then. Wasn't bad but getting electrocuted randomly throws off your rhythm.

[ProbablyDope]

For $200, buy the nice one 😂 buy once, cry once

Just picked up a Prime weld 225, with flexy CK Tig torch and got stick cables too

Last week I bought a miller tig rig from a friend only costed a new welding pancake for his son 😁

[Charles-oekj]

For tig it really depends on how dedicated your are to it because you can get half decent tig torchest for 200 bucks

[gavingallion]

If you want to learn mutiple processes the harbor freight titanium 200 is well worth it 800 gets you everything but no foot pedal which is amazing for stationary work

[UniversalPatriots]

I've been welding 30 years never had to buy anything 😊

[ThisGuyCJ]

Ahh just buy the most expensive at first, so you dont have to waste money on upgrading, goes for everything, hobbies & work...

As someone looking into union welding, this is so goddamn encouraging. $50-$200 is a much more manageable price range than I was expecting.

[johnpapa]

I would buy a good machine right from the git-go. You can learn on a good machine at least as good as on a cheap machine.

[magwatlazten]

Are the cheapest tig rig the same as experience amplified quality one's?
Like do they do exactly the same thing?

[Bruh-kicm]

I just take the one my school has lol 😅
