Cool. What school and what are they teaching?

My local CC requires a very extensive Oxy and Stick coarse before any others. I know thats the way to do it but I just cant commit that kind of time right now.

basic gas welding or stick welding were required prioir taking the Tig. we had short-term programs available for just 8 weeks.

if you take Oxy/Acet courses first, it's a very easy transition over to Tig. the TA in my gas welding class was a cool dude, a full time professional welder who teaches evening school. at the end of the class, he tought me and few others the basics of Tig for few times, that helped me made my mind that i got to get the Tig.
