u need,
tig welder
chop saw
benh grinder
die grinder
plasma cutter
flanges, weld els and tees
gloves
]helmet

need i go on, your looking at a 2k initial buy in at least.

and after you buy all of that, your still not gonna be a good welder,

i suggest buying a 79 dollar flux madness, play with that, and decide if you really like it.

learn on a cheapo.

i mean the chinese tigs are about 400 ready to ride with bottle, personally, ill save for a nice miller 180 or precision tig.
