During election period in our place, flyers are the most widely recognized approach to pass on the stage and authority designs of a competitor. There are huge flags, canvases, stickers, and other limited time things to be given away. However, flyers are as yet the best pick. One reason why it is th...

Welcome both of you!

Thanks for the welcome folks, i recently got a TIG finger but I'm slightly confused about how exactly i should use it effectively. I wish there was more outlets around where i live that sells varieties of welding gear, trying before buying is extremely handy when looking for the right gloves....no ...

Aluminum can be cut with plasma. Entry machines cuts are very course with a lot of slag. Newer machines can use inert air to make the cuts much smoother with less slag.

Welcome to the board.

Put your money on a good helmet. You'll be glad you did. Lincoln makes a good helmet.

You even have a place(s) to clamp it down. Did you MIG weld it? How did you attach the screw to the jaw?

I'll bet they do!

About 6 months ago I bought 4 MagTabs from Jody's store. When I received them I put them away to use in the future. Last week, I needed them and noticed one of them had 3 out of 6 magnets that weren't magnetized. Thinking of throwing it away, I thought, what the heck I'll get on Strong Hand's websit...

I buy my 2% lanthanated tungsten, and support Jody. You know the guy that makes this forum possible?

You guys need to get out of the shop more often! LOL!

I think Jody's running out of stuff to show us and it's a LOT of work to make those videos. It's much easier to do podcasts.

I bought mine on Amazon it came from International Welding Equipment, who imports Everlast's and HTP's coolers. Mine was 290 bucks and came with a 2 year warranty. I did have a quick connect to the cold water line that wouldn't close so International sent me one over-night. Mine is bright green to m...

Eastport, about as close to Canada as you can get on the coast. Is that in the county? Ever heard the folk group Schooner Fare? They have a song about "the county". Man unlock me some schooner fare. I can listen to them and Stan Rogers all day long We made a trip just to see Schooner Fair...

Nick, You will take good care of them, since you own them. I wouldn't worry about the lifetime warranty. Companies are pros of getting out of these warranties anyway. Your torches will NEVER look like the torches at your school!

Where in Maine do you live?
Maine is one of my favorite states!!! Maniers are GREAT people!

Got a 25 dollar Amazon gift certificate for X-mas, so I bought 2ea. 6" C clamp Vise Grips. These small ones come in handy as a pocket on a shirt. Received them and I was surprised at the sloppy construction. Apparently, Irvin had bought Vise Grip. All of my other Vise Grips are the originals an...

Who are they for? I bet your mom would love one.

Recap: Are we saying a tungsten grind that matches a sharpened fine point pencil is bad for Al and instead I need a flattened end? I see the pics and that's exactly what I'm reading, just confirming a n00b's dumb ? This is the kind of questions I hope this thread would bring. Keep it going I'm lear...

I bought the 10 pack of 60 grit. They last and last. Best wheels I've ever bought. I now go to the home stores and laugh at the 4 dollar + wheels.

I'm sorry you're having problems, but I disagree strongly with the explanations about inverter-based machines being cheap, economy market products. There are thousands, if not 10s of thousands of inverter TIG boxes in use every day in the world. You simply got 2 lemons. There's not a thing wrong wi...

Interesting name?
Welcome.

Keep us posted. I hope it's a simple fix. My guess, an intermittent neutral.

Being new to TIG welding, and almost through my second tank of argon, I have only used a 3/32 electrode. I've welded thin stainless, thin aluminum and steel; always using a 3/32 electrode. Using a 200 amp., inverter machine, and being able to sharpen a finer point on the electrode, it seems unnecess...
