I learned MIG and TIG abuout the same time, on the job. A little MIG in HS vocational body shop, but more brazing and panel spotters there.
I had to tack some 1/2" plates to a 1/2" web I beam with a stick (MIG for that building was in use elsewhere) and couldn't do squat, barely stuck...lol

I eventually got a few good penetrating stitches, but haven't sparked a stick since then.
Both of my TIG machines will stick, but I'd rather TIG :D
