This video is all about transforming a simple Arc/Stick welding machine into a Tig welding machine with simple Modification. As we know Tig welding machine is costly compare to a stick welder and, in many countries, people cannot afford expensive TIG welding machines. This modification will be applicable to any stick/welding machine.

I have made a separate circuit for this Tig welding that will not affect your normal stick welding performance. I have added a separate switch for that so that if you do not require the Tig function you keep the switch off and use your Stick function normally. I used a 24V gas valve for the Argon gas 24-volt power supply (SMPS) to give power to the valve. That power is controlled with the Tig trigger switch that is mounted on the Tig torch.

You can use a 12Volt valve and 240Volt valves are also available. In those cases, you have to change the power supply. 240Volt gas valves are a little costly but, in that case, you can use the same 240 volts which are required for an arc welder. No further SMPS or external power supply is required.

In my previous video, I made my own custom Tig torch. That is a very fun project and new learning for me to work with copper.

The whole modification I did in (20-25$). I purchased all material locally. for your convenience I am attaching the link for the material which is required for this modification is as follows.

Tungsten Inert Gas (TIG) welding, also known as Gas Tungsten Arc Welding (GTAW) is an arc welding process that produces the weld with a non-consumable tungsten electrode.

𝐖𝐡𝐚𝐭 𝐢𝐬 𝐀𝐫𝐜 𝐰𝐞𝐥𝐝𝐢𝐧𝐠
Stick welding is a family of welding processes. Arc welding creates a weld by heating materials with an electrical arc until they coalesce. Stick welding can be performed with or without pressure and with or without adding joint filler materials. Many different types of materials can be welded by an arc welding process, assuming they are fair conductors of electricity.
