I was actually just looking at the Thermal Arc as well. They probably wont have the same quality as Lincoln or Miller but they should be acceptable for the small stuff. I believe Harley uses this TIG machine.

You'll have to get your own torch and all of the accessories. Being that these mini machines don't have a high duty cycle, you can purchase a mini torch with the finger screw valve. Use 1/16th" or 5/32nd" tungsten and filler rod.

Yeah, for the price VS miller it is prolly worth it, especially for just doing hobby grade stuff, I don't think I'll be going and welding up on my jeep TJ with it

I love mine, scratch start takes a little bit to get used to, no pedal to mess with. It's a nice simple, no frills machine.

Mine came with a nice Tweco torch with the gas valve on the torch.
