Bring in the electrician that wired it. You have a serious problem. Better yet, bring in a different electrician.

Re: Covering Your TIG Torch Hoses
THIS is what I bought, it's light and looks good, but my torch isn't really in a rough shop environment. Now that's what I'm looking for!! The 5/8" maybe to small for my 3 hose water cooled torch. Thanks!!! NO, if you read the specs it will expand up to 150%, I'm using it on a CK 20 torch...3 ...

Covering Your TIG Torch Hoses
Is there anything out there that is new, other than bulky canvas or heavy leather? Manufactures go out of their way to build and design torches that are light, articulated, and not cumbersome. So what's out there to match the manufactures design? BTW.. I took the leather option and moved the snaps i...

Re: 14 inc cutting blades
I just bought a Dewalt 14" 66 tooth carbide blade, on Amazon. They claim it lasts 40% longer and has a good rating on Amazon. The item that sold me on this blade is it has thicker carbide and they claim it can be re-sharpened. My old Evolution blade has 3 broken teeth and has thiner carbide. Wh...

Re: Tungsten grinding question.
I bought one of those flat disk too. You're right; the angle is weird and I don't get parallel groves to the point of the tungsten. So I went back to my Harbor Freight 3" bench grinder with a diamond blade on it . Works really well. Are you referring to a 3" wheel with a diamond face? Wha...

Re: stubby gas lense kit, water cooler, what do I need?
I have a cooler on an Everest 210 and never looked back. No more resting the torch because it's too hot. It also opens the gate for a newer and bigger welder. With a new, CK flex head #20 torch, and a new cooler I only have 500 bucks in all.

Re: Torch set
You don't have any dealers in your area that will sell you tanks? We have one that will sell any tank you want. I paid $220.00 for my 175 size argon tank, and costs 42 bucks to exchange out for a full one.
