TIG is a total art. any retard can mig weld. stick takes alot of time and practice.......but TIG....either you go it, or you dont. 2 handed welding, walking the cup, controlling your heat/gas/cup size......its not for everyone.

I agree 100%. MIG is very easy. stick is pretty hard. I'm not gonna lie, I suck at stick welding. TIG is really hard, but I seem to be decent at it.
I did this while at school. not my best work, but certainly not my worst!
