TIG Welding tip

"Tungsten Inert Gas" welding or "GTAW" for Gas Tungsten Arc Welding is an arc welding process that uses an arc between a tungsten electrode (non consumable) and the weld pool. And in this oportunity I would like to share a very important tip for the preparation of the tungsten tip. As is well known this has to be sharpened at one end and in the video shared in this post it is shown the right way to do it. It has to be grinded along the axis of the electrode, please pay attention to the video wich is a courtesy of Lincol Electric.-
