A tig torch can be used to cut metal, but it is not as good as a plasma torch.
cutting metal wih a tig torch requires a small tig cup, more argon flow, and a larger electrode and more amps than welding.

Walking the cup technique for tig welding works good on pipe but not much else.
For welding aluminum, or thin sheet metal of any type, walking the cup is not the best technique.
