Cheers. Ideally Hf, but I’m guessing Lift is the most cost effective way to get started, without going the scratch. Scratch looks like it’s awkward to get right to them not use if you get a better machine. Or is it worth just getting a cheap scratch to have a play with? But ultimately out grow quickly (hopefully anyway)

I’ve never TIG welded, but from reading around the car forums I’ve gathered the cheap TIG machines aren’t worth wasting your money on. It’s definitely a question to ask on Retro Rides or one of the other car forums rather than here, though. The tech in consumer (ie non-pro) machines has changed significantly in the last 10 years and moved heavily from transformers to solid state. Plus, if it’s anything like MIG, the torch itself probably makes quite a big difference to your welding experience.

Firstly, stupid question you are getting a 240v one, with a 13amp fuse. Do you know the voltage you get through the day?
Years ago I was looking at Sherman AC/dc machine was a copy of jasic machine. https://www.mig-welding.co.uk/forum/threads/sherman-tig-jasic-in-disguise.93719/ that forum might be better to ask?

Figure out what kind of start you want.
Then buy one and play. Lidl/Aldi do them from time to time.
