    Mojo, I'm saving my lunch money for a 110v, dc tig unit.
    Has Hi freq start, square wave inverter, pre & post gas flow.

    For now I'm sticking stuff together with some good ca glue that holds everything surprisingly well for fitting & mock-up.

    Heres a vid of a guy tigging .003 coke can without blowthrough.
    I'm building mostly with .015-.060, shich is considerably heavier, so should be good to go.
