Jan 16, 2017

Hi and Thank you for listening to episode 26 of the Welding Tips and Tricks Podcast.  For this episode we thought it would fun to talk about Tig Torches.  We really only scratched the surface of the all the different types of torches avalible but we hope that you hear a few new things and spark an interest into looking into different types that might be better suited for a job you're working on besides the standard shop torches.  So download, pop those earbuds in, hit play, drop your hood, and Enjoy!
