The biggest downside to the entry level tig machines is their minimum current. The neat thing about tig is you can weld amazing thin material, if you have the low current control. The only thing that's kept me from getting an econo tig is wanting a unit that goes way down for welding the thin stuff. Miller makes great stuff, love my little 130 mig unit.
To the o/p, what are you planning on welding, and what is your budget? Also what is your experience tig welding and what courses are available to you?
