Tig welder for a beginner

Make sure everything is clean. Base metal and tip. When I was welding mine equipment, there was nothing clean. Welds on hydraulics were TIG. A lot of other welds had to have a TIG root pass, MSHA rules. You'll need a lot of coordination. Right hand.. TIG torch. Left hand... Filler metal. Right foot... "Gas pedal" to control current. Practice.
