My first TIG welds...

I've never TIG welded before, and I really needed to learn, so i tried today on my lunch break.

Practice 1:

Practice 2:

Then I thought I was competent enough to weld a mounting bung to my new catch can. It was a good thing to start on because you can't really see it, but it came out OK for a first try:

I'm not trying to brag about my welds, because they're not great, but I think for a first try, they're alright.
