How to choose which welding induction you need

Do you have something specific in mind at the moment?

• I don't have any definite projects planned, just want to learn.... ?
  • Just in case it's useful in the future
    • MIG Induction - Level 1
  • Because I want to be a good welder
    • TIG induction (MMA Mode), then TIG induction (TIG mode - level 1)
• I've got a project I need to do - What do you need to weld for the project?
  • Mild Steel - How thick?
    • <1mm
      • TIG induction (TIG mode - level 1)
    • 1-5mm
      • MIG Induction - Level 1
    • >5mm or the welding has to be outdoors
      • TIG induction (MMA mode)
  • Aluminium - How thick?
    • <3mm
      • TIG induction (TIG mode - level 2)
    • >3mm
      • TIG induction (TIG mode - Level 2) if it needs to be neat or MIG Induction - Level 2 if it doesn't
  • Stainless Steel
    • TIG Induction (TIG mode - Level 2)
  • Tool Steel
    • TIG Induction (TIG mode - Level 1) + Ask for advice on tool steels
  • Copper, bronze, Nickle, Titanium, Magnesium
    • TIG Induction (TIG mode - Level 2)
  • Cast Iron
    • TIG Induction (TIG mode - Level 2) + TIG Brazing
  • Lead, Pewter, white-metal alloys
    • TIG Induction (TIG mode - Level 2) + Special safety equipment
