Hi ya'll! I haven't really had the opportunity to practice with my pu205, but hopefully this week I will. This is probably a worn out question, but it's new to me, so~

The pedal: I will set no amps cause the pedal does that? how do I know how much to push? will it burn a hole through the metal if too far, or when is enough enough, and how do I achieve the mark, or once I establish the correct amp~ can I just leave it at that spot until I finish welding? There's very litte mention of the pedal other than how important it is to master it!

The trigger on the handle: I set my amps to what I think is correct, practice a bit to see if I'm at the correct amps to what I'm Tigging? This sounds much easier~ for me anyway.

Advice on this subject it quite welcome! the present setting I want to learn quickly is on the gauge metal of the dash on my '59 Apache truck. I need to repair the radio panel with new metal. I'd really like to do this with my Tig vs. my mig.

This is a table a bought at northern tools~ it's great, it's light and the sparks go down into the mesh(a lot of it) when I practice with my mig. It was about 80bucks. I need to go back to the welding supply to buy stuff; I have 1/16 red tungsten, 1/16 rod(filler), argon bottle. I just need to find some metal of the thickness I'll be welding. I thought I saw a man coming out of Northern tools with some small steel plates, or maybe Ace hardware may have some proper gauge.
