Do a little research and see if that welder can be converted to gas. As stated earlier, the flux burns hot, to melt the flux in the wire, so doing small and thin material can be tricky and frustrating. All in all, it is a good start, and one of the best ways to learn and practice. One point of advice, if that helmet is not auto darkening, you might want to invest in one, they are so so nice, especially when learning. Just watch out for the cheap-o units, they are not certified to ANSI standards, I picked up a nice one off ebay for less than $50.
