Potential welder

A good deal of good information here. Having never used the machine in question, I will keep to generalized info.

Worry not about stick as a secondary, just about any (I'm tempted to say all) TIG machine will be able to run stick. All you need till do is swap out the torch for a stinger.

Another thing that was mentioned is a water cooler. There's a great shirt that says, "Yes I know I'm on fire, just let me finish this weld". This is long welds with an air cooled torch, can I finish this string before I lose fingerprints. Also, if you plan on doing any aluminum over 100A, a water cooler is necessary. An added bonus is water cooled torches are smaller.
