Just took delivery of this:

After a bit of fiddling on mild steel to get the hang of things, I swapped the tungsten, switched to AC and rattled this off on some scrap alloy...

Well, not in the metallurgical sense

Funnily enough there are TIG sets that double as plasma cutters.. made in China, guaranteed to last all afternoon

This one's British, dammit: you can tell by the amount of swarf left inside it, the crooked connectors, coffee cup rings...

TVR TIG welder, anyone?
