How to Make a TIG Welder | Scratch Start @AndrewWorkshop

Uploaded October 2020 | Updated September 2026, 1 week ago

In this video learn how to build a simple TIG welder. I break down all the parts and equipment needed to build a crude but effective scratch start TIG welder. With this welder I can weld mild and stainless steels (at least that is all I have tried). I like using this welder to tack things together quickly with out having to add any additional filler material. Also lets me practice my eye hand coordination.

Link to some parts that could be used to make this welder.
