I have a hard time freehand welding, I mig weld which I’m sure is even easier to freehand compared to tig. I build 53’ enclosed trailers like nascar stuff and truck pull stuff, shit for Porsche and Michelin, cooper tires, KTM, and other stuff, right now building pods for Three Olives, built stuff for Chick-fil-A! I’ve always wanted to learn to tig tho, we do some tig like aluminum handrails and fuel tanks, some stuff on the lift gates are aluminum to. Just don’t have the time to learn at work or even after work since we only have 1 morning shift

Work on 120/240 i try the 120 at around 100 amp the breaker trip, i want to test it on 240 before i leave my current job. I try welding steel 3/16 thick at 100 amps on 120 and it wasn't enough maybe i should have try aluminum can.

Old, practiced hands can make works of art using the crappiest equipment. I knew a welder, Tan, in ChoLon, SaiGon, now retired, who specialised in heavy metal welding such as as railway wheels, nut & screw washing barrels, boat propellers (up to 1.5M), etc. Had muscles of steel and did all his work sitting on stools outside his workshop. His work was so good his customers ranged from boat yards to government agencies to industrial manufacturers - all done with an ancient welder and his talent acquired through years of work. May you have a long retirement Tan.
