Tig welder was created by Chad
My brother-in-law has a trucking company. He hauls grain. His grain hauling trailers are aluminum. He said that he spends hundreds of dollars a year on various welding repairs. He has offered to buy me a tig welder if I am willing to learn how to tig-weld. Well, that's a no-brainer.

So my question is this. Can anyone guide me in choosing a welder? I have zero experience tig welding and want to make sure that I choose a welder that will suit my needs.
