Video: TIG Welding

This one was a let down. Things hot rodders need to know, like butt welding thin steel panels was not covered at all. So much could have been done on this subject. He should show welding roll cages, thin metal, space frames and stuff car builders do. Welding in positions other than horizontal on the table with 1/8" plate was not explained. He talks about safety but fails to explain some tungstens are mildly radio active so one should wear protection. Only aluminum and stainless were covered. Many of us have steel cars, lol. There was too much Cheesy bragging about "Weld-Pro" and Dunkcan's amazing welding skills. That time could be filed with more learning. There were still some worthwhile tips I picked up though. Glad I rented this instead of buying it.

This was a worthwhile DVD. If you've ever soldered, you'll head off in the direction of to much heat to do lead body work. The film emphasizes controlling heat to keep lead in the plastic zone and then moving it into position. For anyone wanting to learn lead body repairs, I recommend this as a start. It won't make you a pro to start with, so get a junk fender and practice.

I recommend to anyone building more than the original configuration of their motor.
