I've had mine for a while now(18mths)had no problems yet. As others said it can weld 6mm aluminum and with no preheat on AC squarewave(had it set on max but never used it all), you will need a 3.2mm tungsten and a watercooled torch if you want to do anything meaningful :roll: I can tell you they are...

Green is nice

Do you mean timing the pulses like a two stroke power pipe?

If you intend to weld ally you will need at least a 200amp machine... your budget will just cover that including a bottle of gas. What ever you do dont be fooled by the cheaper Chinese machines, here in oz this will leave you with brands like token tools and Everlast... Unimig newer models. CIG and ...

Welcome to the forum Stevo... another crow eater that makes 3 of us :D What kind of budget are you wanting to spend on a machine? A half decent machine set up for aluminum(up to 6mm max) with all the bits needed to get started will start from about $3k(200amp machine/watercooler plus consumables)her...

And Westend drought... terrible stuff

Geeeze that must have cost a bomb to make in wages!

Bloody easterners!

Do you have the manual http://www.everlastgenerators.com/sites ... 20250s.pdf

Sounds like the ramp up has been set for an extended time?

Dont post such bloody big photo's Harry!

Helped out a mate the other day, poor bugger was cruising along the hyway and ran over a centre punch of all things... Went through the tyre and punched a neat hole in his near new 20" alloy rim! The hole was about 6mm(1/4")in dia http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v725/ST170ish/20160318_12...

Didnt think metal saws had tyres on them for that very reason?
My horizontal bs doesnt have any... but my upright wood one does:)

Didnt Jody do a vid not long ago on building up a shaft?

Jamie have you found Keith Fenner on youtube yet... if you havent hop to it

Sounds like you need a block of land out Lewiston area

Yeah great isnt it Mo... and tonight I get the pleasure of working on a liquation furnace in it

The carton of piss sounds good though

Mo, have you looked at pressure pumps for agricultural spray units?

I have three words for you: Miller Cool Band. They are available in two varieties; belt filter, and back of the head filter. They aren't cheap, but you'll like them. I use a hair dryer to warm the helmet first if the weather is cold. I have seen these before but unfortunately like I mentioned I hav...

Id be interested in seeing a direct comparison of the effects of polarity on tig welding, keeping the same set up and on differing materials. Maybe a run down on machine cables, like whats best whats worst for given application A do's and dont's on stick rods ie, what's the basic main use for common...

Yep I've fried my step counter thingo, forgot it was in my pocket and had the TIG anaconda near it while working sitting down... lucky it was a freebee from a health program at work

I think if the sensitive equipment is isolated it should be fine after all there's plenty of welding vids about.

3 Aussie's on one post... oi oi oi!

Welcome to the forum Micko

How much are they charging for them?

The specs look pretty good and grind mode can be selected from the outside by the looks so thats a bonus!
Pay to check out the head band set up as thats where most fail 1st

I like the Vixen decals

In Farcry 4 you wave an oxy torch at things to fix them

LWS here has 5kg packs of satincraft for $50
Just dont expect anything remotely TIG!

What do you intend to use the reel for?
