I you are lucky to have some night training (assuming you work during the day), I would say enlist as soon as possible.

Also, no doubt there are a lot of smart people here that should respond, however go to this site to learn more about welding. There are a lot of experts there.

I have the same welder. Works great for what it is. I do agree, start with Mig and work your way up to Tig. I use to do some welding in shop class a long time ago! Migs great for utility type welding , but Tig gives you a really pretty weld.

What I did to practice was to build a welding table. Two birds with one stone... got to practice and got a table.
