3 phase. spares or repair. No leads or torch (meh).
All the good ones are around 150quid.
For hobbist the "cheap chinese crap" seems to work enough. So you have to wait for it to cool down a little Duty cycle. Fine.
Find a model in your budget and go research.
Folks said all the chinese tigs are shit but then I've read of pros reviewing them and finding them not terribly bad.
I've got a Snap On MIG - read Cebora. Cos I got a deal from a mate.
But I've played with a chinese tig and whilst tig is a whole new ball game, it was doing a fair job of it for the money.
Both thin sheet and thick stuff it was coping well. Just flying through disposable argon bottles
