Yes, yes indeed.


Weld on!

That link was merely for demonstration perposes. Your MIA/POW would probably is availible as a passive. Mick Far as I've seen (and I've researched pretty well), they only make those two styles (black/flames) in fixed shade. So I've been trying to figure out how to fit a gold lens in one of the ADF ...

Curious to see how it welds


Weld on!

http://www.savephace.com will put any design you can imagine on any helmet you want. They have Std. lenses, and ADs, with peripheral vision options. Steve S They've got some badass looking helmets! But, I think getting it painted would make this venture much more expensive than I was thinking. Part...

http://www.millerwelds.com/about/news_releases/2008/articles233.html This is the one you can buy, and add an adf later if you like. :-) Not a fan of the design. I know, who cares. But the POWMIA helmet really speaks to me. I want this helmet (no lens) with a gold lens in it. (http://www.weldfabulou...

Hey, A little research just told me that you can buy a passive helmet in the shape of a miller D E. That can be upgraded to a Adf later if desired. So it stands to reason that you can eaily swap the other way, and there must be a gold lens out there some where. Colin fromToxicfab.com made his own g...

I've seen a couple people online now that have modified their original ADF helmet and put a fixed shade in its place. I've seen both the Speedglas and Miller Elite helmets with these done. However, I can't figure out how to go about doing it. From what I can tell, the Elite would be too big to fit a...

I assure you, it is worth every penny (especially considering I got it during the black friday sale with a total of $300 savings).

ooooooooooooh!!

good job nice work ps' you might weld a little hotter, some of your welds have a little cold lap good luck and keep up the practicing ;) John Thanks! I'll try and remember to up the amps when I get back to it! Remember first, it's a suggestion. Not every idea works for everyone. I think he's right,...

Thank you! And yes, I have the bug! I'm going insane not being able to weld, and I still got 3 more weeks before school starts up again!

*Mods, if this isn't the right section, please move it. Seemed to fit well to me :)* A little background: I'm 20 years old, have welded TIG for about a quarter so far (fri,sat,sun), and am in love with it. :mrgreen: I have some experience with stick as well, from high school. I went to a tech school...

Enjoy!

I've NOT heard of them. If you get to play, give us a serious review, please! Steve S I plan on it! Went down and talked to them for a while right before they went to FabTech. Great guys, great mission. 3 year warranty. Keep in mind, I'm still much a novice, but will try and compare it to the PT 27...

Anybody heard of them? They've got a DC/repair facility near me in Kent, WA. They're built by Jasic (China) but seem to be pretty good machines. You all seem to be a little more Chinese friendly and understand that not everyone can afford a $10,000 welder for their machine. I know they were at FabTe...

Thank you, Mike!

Welcome, Dakota, This is a good place for students, as you can talk to people from so many crafts and backgrounds, and ask any question without worry. There is at least one professional welding instructor here, as well. Steve S Thank you, been lurking for a while and finally registered. Been coming...

CK. Damn good, and made about 20 mins from my house.

Hey all, quick intro. My name's Dakota (if you didn't figure that out :lol: ) and I'm a welder-to-be. First quarter back to school just ended, and I've been focusing on TIG, mainly. I love it!! And, seem to be catching onto it pretty well. I'm 20 years old, and living up in Washington State. My end-...
