Im curious as to why M/S cages are TIG'ed. The test of a weld is that when you try to pull it apart, the material around it fails before the weld. Since a MIG weld has a larger radius than a TIG you end up with a larger surface area and (theoretically) a stronger weld. Is it for looks? A good TIG weld is usually nicer looking, but it is usually easier to get a MIG gun into the cramped areas, and you don't have to deal with trying to operate the pedal with your knee,

Nice resume, but IMO you didn't answer his question.


Thanks for the compliment on the resume.For that tight cage work set you TIG up with a small torch head and a thumb control.We hardly ever have to remove headliners on cars with full interior.Foot pedals are ok for bench work.
