Sporkbike- Thanks for the advice, I will definitely practice some more as that is the only way to get good! I am really looking forward to getting my working foot pedal in, I originally "learned" how to TIG with a footpedal and it allowed me to just move my foot and keep a constant/stead pace with both of my hands which helped out tons, but now since I am only using the torch I am having to adjust my feed rate with both hands as the pieces heats up........it is definitely a bit more of a challenge to get everything looking consistent that way .
