One of the big benefits to wire fed processes like mig welding is the wide range of travel speed that is possible.
Stick welding is a great process for one off type jobs or outdoor welding, but imagine if you had to weld 1000 parts on a turntable and you wanted to make a profit. You would probably chose a wire fed process like short circuit MIG, spray transfer MIG, or some other wire feed process like metal core.

I started my apprenticeship at age 18 after taking a welding coarse and it took 6 years to complete. I had to learn the trade using oxy/acetylene first, then they let me use the Tig welder because that’s what was used on in situ welds on the aircraft. Most of the welding I’ve done on aircraft parts was on .065 and thinner. At home I try to stay 1/8th and above. On watching most weld shows online I see they use thicknesses of 1/4” and higher which doesn’t help me very much. I enjoy your shows and I can identify with your aviation background. Thank you very much.
Great site ,, well balanced views n no BS!!

I watch all of your videos. I don’t tigweld but do enjoy your content. You have a great mix stick, mig and tig. Thanks
Great video. Cut and etch is very informative. Mig and stick are the only processes I have on a hobby farm and use mig more often. Thanks for the video
