Have you ever wondered if it is possible to turn a MIG welder into a TIG welder? If so, you won't want to miss this video. We visited Adam Streich at Pellissippi State Community College in Knoxville, TN to get the answer. He demonstrates that it is possible to transform your MIG torch into a TIG torch by changing the gas to 100% argon, altering the polarity to DCEN, and creating a custom "contact collet" to hold your tungsten. While the practicality of this technique is still up for debate, it's important to stay curious as there might be a perfect application for it in the future.
