This is the last in the Tig welding series with Mr. Tig. In this installment we cover some ‘add ons’ to the welder as well as how to weld Aluminum which is a little different than wending regular metals. I had a lot of fun with this series and I thank Mr. Tig and his crew for putting this series together.

Hey Mr. Tig I have a prime 225 Tig got it on Amazon their promoting the hell out of it out of it he all the inexpensive machines this one seems to be pretty good for money under 800 from what I understand it's better than the alpha and a lot of the other ones in that range it has AC/DC a lot of other things I do not understand I'm fairly new at welding I do pretty good with Tig I think I find the hardest is stick I also have a titanium 200 multiple processor stick, Tig, mig
Paid $ 749 harbor freight scratch start Tig I hate scratch start up they are selling one hell of a lot of these Prime 225 not any good video on how to use…!!
🚨(( NOTE )) 🚨
Could you please do a video with the prime 225 and help the million people that bought it try to explain everything on it there's a lot I need help finding out almost beginners don't know too much when it comes to all those settings
👄 please help us do a video on the 225 prime 🙏 pretty please 👄 we watch your videos a lot some watch over and over again
freaking awesome
Mr. Tig…. You're awesome! Thank you for the informative and thoughtful lesson on tig welding.
have fun laying under your car welding with a pedal
Yeah it is a little known secret. Everlast really should be better at getting the word out. The CK torches with superflex line are really a pleasure to work with.
Everlast carries CK torches now? They really ought to advertise that better on their website. I really like their flexloc line.
Looks like a CK torch. Everlast is a distributor of their torches now.
what model torch are you using?
what model torch is that? I want to get one
can't watch video because it asks to get the latest flash player which I have already done. 🙁
Lol, he looked at you like you were mad, say what?? What do I say?. Good prompt 🙂
Hey Eric, I have a Honda question for you if you don't mind. My friend just bought a 2006 Honda Accord 4 cylinder Automatic. I noticed that on the highway, when you are giving it gas an audible whine is heard from what sounds like it is coming from the transmission. When you are coasting, you can't really hear it, it is only under load. The car has around 130k miles, so I imagine the trans is a little tired. Just wanted to get your opinion on this.
There's a different way to initiate the arc which you can set up on certain tig machines. Some machines to initiate you simply have to tap the tungsten to the metal and it'll arc by itself. The down side is you can't control how much amperage it puts out(unlike with the pedal)and it'll put out as much as you set it out to. In order to break the arc you just pull it away from the work piece. This will only work on certain types of steel and not on aluminum since you can't cool it with the gas.
cool vid my neighbor welded everything a to z he showed me how to weld a bit, cool vid keep it up peace
Sorry to see this is the last in the series. As said by Mr Tig "you can't get it all from the books". Excellent series, Eric (& Mr. Tig)
sorry eric….. boring video…… except the end credit. that was funny Still love ya
You two work well together!
The audio was recorded on a separate device, and then merged with the video and rendered at a different refresh rate than the original recording. I think.
Welding get's addictive, so much in fact that Rob got me my own wire feed welder so I'd
leave his mig welder alone… LOL Although I haven't welded much lately I still get the urge…
I might go and weld something tomorrow now…. LOL
Another good video, Eric!!!
.
Merrie-Merrie
im curious as to why the audio quality is so poor. but they are wearing mics?
get creative.
another great vid
Hey, Eric. It's nice to see you broaden your knowledge base. I, too, am wanting to learn welding. The only welder I have to work with is a 1955 GE DC stick welder engine-powered. But first I'm having to get the old Wisconsin VF4 engine running good. Fun! lol

Mr. Tig is a wizard!!!
I thought, I've heard this video last week. Then I realized it is on both channels.
Those people who complain about the audio need to understand how loud the machine is, coupled with electrical interference. To do this interview live is difficult, even though they are using isolation lav mics on each speaker. I guess they could have done a voice-over in a studio after, but then it takes the spontaneous dialogue out if it. The best students learn to cope with obstacles like that.
You get a lift
uh car lifts maybe
Sad, but i have to agree.
The TIG is very versitile but MIG is much easier for welding exhaust systems.Most muffler shops only use MIG.
The audio quality is very bad in these videos with Mr. Tig. It sounds like you used a high compression algorithm for the audio, squeezing it down to 32kBit/s or something, maybe even less. It really hurts my ears. Or the microphone you used was crap 😉 (but I actually hear digital compression fragments, so I don't think it was the mic)
I really don't see a point using TIG to repair _old_ cars. Expecially if you are working under the car. It's hard enough with the MIG let alone with the TIG when you have to use both hads on welding and it's much harder to weld with a TIG than what it whit MIG. If welding new parts that are clean and free of rust and you have space to work with then it's another thing. Even then I'm not fan of TIG. Maybe if you are welding eg. rollcage that has to be certified that's completely different thing.
I can't stand this anymore, a good video, but the sound just gets on my nerve.
