Think of Tig as gas welding, using an arc instead of flame.
The arc is gas shielded, and you feed the filler rod and
move the puddle just as in O/A. With a high quality Tig
welder, control of the arc properties to a high degree is
possible. There is much to learn concerning the tungsten arc
rod, and much 'hand' to learn to produce consistent high
quality, uniform welds in different materials.
