As usual, wonderful work you are doing.
Which TIG hand control are you using these days?
Hey John I made a little jig to hold the trim stud at the right height to weld it in place and then separate to remove it from the stud. Once it’s held in the jig you can’t screw it up. I just use the trim studs Belden sells that are made for the stud weld guns. Too much effort for these 2 studs but I also had the 6 or so across the channel in the deck filler.

I’m still just using a simple finger on/off switch I made from Amazon parts on my TIG torch. I do everything in what has become my go-to high amp pulse deal. No need for amperage control once I get it dialed in… just how many pulses I want before heat is an issue.
