I think speed is also a factor, is it not? Mig is better when you are doing long passes and lots of them, but tig is a lot slower process, as I understand it.

I'm a little surprised the tig I got Dan hasn't been used more, but he is so comforable with his mig that he uses it almost exclusively. My buddy who owns the body shop bought the very same tig at the same time period, and he hasn't used his yet. He says he's waiting for Dan to teach him how.

Maybe when he starts on his body the tig will be used then.
