Something I would like to learn.

The best way to learn something is to just go and do it. Unfortuantly with AC TIG its a fairly hefty financial investment to get set-up and started. Your gonna need to spend about AU$2.5k for a complete setup. (Welder, torch, table, gas bottle/gas reg, foot pedal, auto dark mask/PPE, consumables; filler wire, acetone, tungstens, torch parts etc.)
But that said, for me the TIG gear was one of the best tools ive bought. And as far as modifing cars, also one of the best things ive done. Ive used it now to make headers, exhaust pipes, intercooler pipes, coolant tanks, custom brackets and all sorts of stuff. If i had of paid someone to professionally make all the things ive made with the TIG so far, it would cost more than it cost to buy the gear and learn how to do it myself.
