TIG is my favorite process, Sadly I am only decent on flat horizontal welds. But to me it is very relaxing. I've been known to just weld flat bar together over and over because I just enjoy the rhythm once you get into the groove. Odd, I know, but relaxing. Years ago I scored a big Baldor buffer for a song. That thing makes any weld look shiny and nice.

In my mind I want to be this guy, but I'll have to settle for lawnmower and snowblower repairs instead: 1614567668304.png

Hey Pete, I completely agree with you on the relaxing aspect of TIG.
