The only thing with the copper is it is such a heat sink it takes a lot to get it to puddle up. Then it will run away with you in a hurry. I bet brass would work the same. Really tig welding is just fancy brazing.

Cant really say that there is any kind of benefit to the setup. Mostly just going for custom cosmetics.
