TIG welder or English wheel I can practice with?

[darxus]

I have a lot of practicing to do if this project is ever to become remotely realistic enough to buy my own TIG welder.

Aluminum monocoque. Electric. 41" tall.

The english wheel is a *really* beefy framed piece of equipment. Even if you had a large enough TIG torch to handle welding it up, why would you want to? It would take forever, and not really make you any better at TIGing the thinner aluminum stuff. Big beefy stuff you use MIG or stick. Many TIG units will also do stick, not so many will also do MIG. The ones that can are mondo pricey last time i was looking.
