I do some voluntary work for a local cycle charity. We’ve got some projects in mind that we’ll need some welding done on. We’re thinking about buying a TIG welder as that will help us with this work and also would be handy to have at the workshop for future bike stuff.
I was thinking that a fairly entry level TIG welder with a foot pedal is what we need.
Can anyone advise what’s a good starter option? Being a charity there’s not a huge amount of cash around but we want something that’s not complete rubbish.
Or the other option is going the gas brazing route which would be mor bike specific and then would it be possible to use it for some general, non-bike fabrication in steel plate?
