The main reason this is done is NHRA/IHRA requires all chassis’s to be tig welded there doing this to fool the tech inspectors into thinking there chassis is legitimately safe when it’s not
well hot dang, you're right! Almost never have I been more surprised. I like my version Motorized Inert Gas (MIG) vs Metal Inert Gas (MIG) better, since it's all metal! Good Catch
Thanks for the demonstration. I agree with your thoughts on strength being the most important thing. Thanks for sharing. Greetings from Maine.
Making a strong weld takes about a quarter the time too!

That's a very interesting thought. It would be a horrible mistake because it's so much weaker than actual MIG.
For a roll cage mig and tig are approved
Have to keep the volts high so that your puddle lays down better. Just turn the wire feed down. I personally am not a fan of mig like tig.
I'll try it out!
It will look good after you grind it 😉
It's a lot harder to do on 1/8 inch metal haha
It's a good point, but don't you still have low penetration regardless of the thickness?
its Metal not motor :)

Ur volumes too low , moving on
Thanks, I'll keep an eye on that
