Hello,

So, my first plane has a welded 4130 tube frame with a wood wing. After researching MIG, TIG and Gas welding I've decided on Gas as the benefits and cost puts it more inline with what I capable of doing at this time. Maybe one day I will slap down $5k for a TIG kit but the tinmantech.com deluxe starter kit is more like my speed for this project.

So, I've got my Meco Midget and super-dupper eyeball protection in the mail but I am having trouble finding somebody to help me learn. The local community college wanted almost $3k and then got upset that that was the only course I wanted to take. I checked the EAA workshops and the only ones I saw were nowhere near Georgia!

Anyways, anybody got ideas on how I can pull this off without killing myself or burning down my house?
