Welcome to the site Gert-Jan, I have nothing against mig and tig welding, I show the uses for these on the DVD. Tig welding as I show is more or less the same as gas welding when it comes to dressing the weld out.
I am amazed at the way that Johnny finishes mig welds and as you say he learned from Randy, I would never have thought it possible to finish a mig weld in this way. It just seems a lot of work to me. ( I hate grinding welds!) It would not be possible to carry out some of the other techniques I show if you mig weld. If you are trying to metal finish steel you will get on better with a flipper file like I show.
