Shortly after this topic went viral in the welding community, Justin’s inbox on EVERY social media account and email soon filled with the question – “How?”
Here’s how.

Thanks for passing this along, it will definitely work in a pinch...... Keep up the great stuff!!
I'm converting one of my Hobart LX 235 stick welder's for tig, with pedal.
How do I do this with my Lincoln 180 240 volt?
With the correct power source, a welder SHOULD be able to MIG, TIG, STICK, and Plasma all in one unit. They don't want to build such a thing because it takes away their profits.
One thing you could have mentioned is that MIG is a constant voltage process; you set the current via the wire feed speed. TIG and stick are both constant current processes. You set the voltage with the shielding gas selection and arc length. The bottom line is, of course, that you don't have the heat control you do with a real TIG pedal. But it does work, doesn't it? One of my best stick welds was with a pair of car batteries in series and a 1/8" 6013 rod. Ah fond memories of the Mojave desert and broken vehicles...
I just bought a tig gun and plugged it Into my mig machin
Interesting. I have a cheap triple function welder. I don't use TIG because I cannot control the flow of the gas. Using this method and learning how to set the voltage I can control the gas with the switch on the torch. Nice trick.
Do u have to use gas?
I take it you have to disconnect the wire so it's not trying to feed through the whole time?
