I can’t believe this video was uploaded 10 years ago. The quality is outstanding. Thanks for the tips.
We are glad you found it helpful, Luke! Thanks for the feedback.
I've been a welder now for about four years in the body collision repair. It's always good to refresh your memory and keep your pallet open! Especially on things you do everyday. I appreciate all the tips! you break things down really well and it helps people stay fresh and confident. Weld on!
+Brittney Kay Thank you! We are glad to hear that our videos have been helpful. Don't hesitate to send any questions you have our way. Thanks again and weld on...
Perfect talk and no sales pitch...we all know Miller.
This video was concise and to the point. Most welders don't need to see ten minutes of bead being laid down.
Thanks!!
Thanks for your comments Zdravko. Glad you're putting our machines to good use across Europe.
16 in year 11 and doing tig welding for my engineering assignment and I need to improve on tig a lot. These tips really help me to accomplish my dream of a female engineer in the mining industry, Thank you so much !
I haven't welded with my powertig in a while. This video is a great refresher course.
Excellent video, I haven't TIG welded since my apprenticeship 40 years ago, and now I have just bought a TIG because I have several jobs that need the fine weld performance of an AC/DC GTAW process. Was very pleased to see that I still remember most of the basics, and this video was excellent for reinforcing that knowledge. I'm looking forward to rebuilding forgotten skills, and Miller's excellent Welding Tips videos will help me along the journey. Thank you for taking the time to make these videos and helping your customer base grow and succeed.
Sir i am tig weldar
You're quite welcome, Michael. Keep at it -- welding is a great profession. And let us know if you have any application questions specific product questions. No, you can't get free gear. But we've got lots of tips.
John is awesome, a great Miller asset and enjoy talking to him at SEMA and other shows.
I am doing an introductory TIG course as we speak and this was very helpful. Thank you.
Good video, always nice to hear the basics again when you have just started out like me!
Thanks.
Now that is a nice explanation! Thank you!
With so many of the other welding videos, the guys gloss over a lot of the details. Beginners don't know those details, so the details need some explanation. The chap in this video does a fine job of clearly explaining the nuts and bolts that a beginner does not know.

Anthony tell me which is good tig or mig

This is awesome ! i'm learning welding in France since 2 weeks, and you very help me !! i understand really good what you explain ! Thank you i will try this tip monday next ! :)
should not be talking too much about Miller, highly reliable devices with very stable voltage is also very durable, I used them in workshops and in the field, I am particularly pleased with flexible cables.I would like to one day buy up one myself :) I'm a professional Welder I have worked in several countries (Germany, Italy, Norway, Russia) and I always happy when I get to a new place and seeing Miller :) greetings from Serbia
thank you so much for this video, just bought a tig, had a play and this vid answered so many questions!!!
Good info, well-delivered. Tips, techniques, not hacks.
thanks for the tip am going to do a welding test and i surely welcome the refreshment
This is a very helpful short video. Thanks!

good ol Tungsten Inert Gas welding. Great video Miller!
That is the best informations for a Welders....thanks Miller
Thank you miller welds keep up im always watching your videos
Thank u very much for easy understanding explanation.
Thank you very much for your exhibition on welding performers I am to Costa Rica
Thanks sharing for welding tips
So I'm 17, and would love to become a welder after high school and just wanted to say thank you for making such good videos on how to weld!
+Hellraiser We're happy to hear that you're passionate about welding and that you like our videos. Keep at it and be sure to stay connected with us. Weld on...
Curious to know if you followed through and have become a welder and/or are working to become a welder?

dunnamang also curious
I run a syncrowave 250 every day at work and love it.. went from being terrible with a tig torch to confident enough to weld most projects in a very short time!
That is great to hear! Thank you for supporting Miller. We appreciate it!
Very good teaching effort, John.
thanks for the video. I Better understand Tig welding now.
I do not know anyone who does not like a miller welder. They are great equipment.
Awesome video guys!
Going to be welding for a brand new company soon, so this video definitely helped me brush up a little! Cheers!
Great tips !!
great video thanks
Basically, when you’re dealing with TIG welding aluminum in high humidity, you want to be certain that your base and filler metals are as clean and free of moisture as possible. In addition to typical degreasing and oxide removal, the base and filler metals should be kept above the dew point temperature so that ambient water vapor doesn’t condense on the surface. If this happens, it will saturate the porous oxide layer and complicate your cleaning procedures.
Hope this helps! Weld safely.
Thanks for that.... Hope to learn more
I'm going to Vo Tech to become a welder. I'm going to start studying while I can! Thanks Nielsmiller!
did u do it?
very nicely edited ... CRISP and CLEAN ...just like your welds i guess :)
Thanks for posting!
Thank you for your tips
Please make more video.
Very helpful to easily understand
I love miller machines, I got a Dynasty 280 and it's a beast!!! let me do a real Quality welds Tig and stick.
Wery helpfull video! Thanks!
Thanks mate, top video
Good instruction !
Awesome thanks for all the info. Great video
Just starting out tig good video
Great video!
This is a common application for a TIG welder. The wall thickness of the tube/pipe dictates the weld amperage requirements need. Both the inverter based Maxstar® 150 and 200 TIG machines are commonly used for this application. Personally, I would opt for the Maxstar® 200 based solely on the inclusion of and adjustability of the pulser feature in that machine. ... (more sent directly to the emails provided)
I might also add.. as someone that has TiG welded on and off for over 20 years... (I'm still a total hack!!) a good cheat with mild steel is to use stainless filler rod... make sure everything is clean.... if you can do as many test pieces if you have spare material... practice... practice... practice! In my peak I could free hand weld along the edge of a single edged razor blade... though it was with a very ancient Tig welder.... still got that blade somewhere lol... couldn't hope to do that with my 200amp inverter hack machine I have now.
Cheers for the tips... they all help!!
Video is very well done.
Great video thanks.
Nice observation.
Very good many thanks
well, ty mister !! clean and easy video, got my main problem fixed with this :)
We're happy to hear that the video was helpful!
Great video !! Keep it up!!
thank you.Great!
Good tips at the end
Good info.
great video really helpfull!
really it is very usefull thanks a lot
Thanks!
looked at hundreds of videos, finally found yours, great video thanks !!! do you have a pdf on this?
There are several factors that control the amount of heat input or puddle size:
Amperage - controlled either by a foot pedal or fingertip control - more amperage will result in more heat
Voltage - controlled through the arc length - a longer arc length will result in a higher voltage (which results in more heat)
Travel speed - slow travel speed (more time in the same) area typically results in a larger puddle

Good job
thank you nice vidio
Good tips
Good information
thank you
very good
Thank you for the video . I'm new to welding but really want to jump into Tig welding right away . I'm sure with practice and diligence I'll figure it out . Buying a Miller 210 this week
+MartyBlue78 We're happy to hear that our video has been helpful. Let us know how you like your machine! Weld on...

Hey man get after it! Just one thing to keep in mind is that you should watch real TIG welders, not this scrub. You never point the tip going into the grinding wheel(it should be noted you need a separate wheel for tungsten), for aluminum you round the tip and for the Taper size on the tungsten it’s not up to 2 1/2 the diameter size, it’s actually 2 1/2-3x the diameter
If I'd known this over four years ago when I was a welder I would have possibly improved by now!
Thanks
Always Good👍👍👍
thanks
Nice vid
Nice video,,,,👍👍👍
Just a quick reminder to those watching that normally you should not hold a workpiece against the grinding wheel in that position as it can easily get pulled down between the rotating grinding wheel and the tool-rest. The wheel can shatter throwing out bits of material at a very high speed causing injury.

@Empty Head if you can't accept your humanity, you shouldn't be around.
dont dare care something unimportant like this
thx nice video
EXCELLENT
Maybe try showing gas lens.. really works well in tight spaces and works awesome in every day application 😉😉😉👍
good tips
GooD information
im 16 and i can't wait to get my first tig welder, i love to weld and i want to work at miller soo bad
Do you now work for Miller I’m 17 btw learning tig
I just started welding months ago and I’ve already learned stick welding and oxyfuel cutting I can’t wait till mig and tig
Did you end up working for miller dude?
good info..looking for a used TIGger..
Helium will transmit more heat to the part than argon when both are set to the same current output. So, if an application requires deeper penetration, using a helium blend or pure helium are an option.
However, helium is known for poor arc starting characteristics. It is more expensive than argon per unit volume. It requires much higher flow rates than argon (about double), which makes it even more expensive to run. Unless your application demands helium, you're much better off with pure argon.
Settings should be the same for any machine even if the interface is different. Set it for DCEN, remote (foot) amperage control, 100% argon shielding gas flowing at 15-20cfh, 3/32” diameter 2% ceriated tungsten ground to a truncated point, and you should have filler metal rods of alloys 304L or 308L.
