This web site is dedicated to those who wish to construct their own welder.  I choose the TIG variant because of the weld quality produced and the amount of heat control.  My purpose for the TIG welder was to butt weld thin 20 gauge sheet metal.  This welder is capable of 160 Amps DC and all the way down to 10 or so amps.  TIG welders use some type of constant current control to manage the welding process.  In my case, I choose to design a foot control which allows me to select the maximum current and also quickly vary the current output.

If you have questions or want to let me know how to improve the site, you can contact me at
