O/T Thermal Arc welder ?'s

Anyone have experiance with the Thermal Arc Dragster 85 being used as a Tig?? I know it will be a scratch start but I only need a small tig for sheetmetal, exhaust work ect. Would this be a good choice for the lower end price?

 

weld with one every day love that welder it works great for metal up to .125 ..

 

Is it a stick welder converted to tig?
If so what do you do about sheilding gas?

 

thermal arc makes good stuff. ive used the 185 at work. the 85 just for light stick. you can convert any stick to tig. just scratch start.

 

Cool,Thanks guys!! I think the torch kit has the reg and hose for the gas.
