XMT 350 or Tig welder

admin

I have a xmt 350 and have never tig welded before but I would like to learn how to. Would It be cheaper to buy the required equipment for my 350 or buy a tig welder.Thanks for any help.
Reply:Yes, it would be cheaper to set your XMT up for tig than to buy a new tig machine.  You will need a torch with a gas valve, a foot pedal or finger control, a tank of argon and an argon regulator/flowmeter.  Or, you can buy an HF251 freq box that has the gas valve and high frequency start and use a torch without a gas valve.  You will be able to do DC tig on steel and stainless.MM350P/Python/Q300MM175/Q300DialarcHFHTP MIG200PowCon300SMHypertherm380ThermalArc185Purox oaF350CrewCab4x4LoadNGo utilitybedBobcat250XMT304/Optima/SpoolmaticSuitcase12RC/Q300Suitcase8RC/Q400Passport/Q300Smith op
