have been told tig is better cos welds are smaller and softer less grinding

Hey dave why not just get yourself a mig.That would do the job ok.Not much to grind for tacking.

Hi Dave, a mate of mine invested in a TIG and he says it's the ducks guts, very little if not no grinding after any weld. Sounds like the way to go to me, I'm feeling just a touch jelous after using a MIG on my wagon
