TARC welding

[Don Dulmage <big-d@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I was fooling around in the shop yesterday and have wanted to trey TIG welding. I bought some tungsten rods at the local surplus store and took some scrapsteel  and laid it together. It took some playing but  on DC at 40 amps with conventional polarity (and no gas yet) I was able to start and sustain an small arc that worked not unlike  a OXY ACET torch. I could get a puddle ging and amitian it as long as I wanted.  I think with the gas added it will be useable as a TIG . Must be something on my 63 that needs tigging. maybe a new set of headers, I call it TARC welding right now, No rod just nice clean fusion.
