For instance stainless oxidizes if you use air. Mild steel forms a hard layer on the cut edge if you use air or nitrogen. > 3) I have a free Miller Syncrowave 200 TIG free, is it possible to use > the TIG as the power source? > No. Different voltage and different characteristics. Modern plasma cutters are pretty sophisticated beasts. There aren't many plasma specialists on this list.
