i wouldn't say tig is easier but i doubt there's any argument it's the best. i have a syncrowave 250 with a water cooled torch and unfortunately it's a lot better welder than i am. i really wish i could weld better but i don't do it enough to remain proficient. i've been wanting to pick up some classes even offered a very skilled welder money to spend time with me but neither ever came about. i do agree if someone said i could only have one welding skill it would be tig hands down.

might be some interesting info here web page
