Re: Help/Advice needed on thin sheetmetal - TIG

Received this response from CK today: Bevan, the part number for that amperage control would be SGACV-25-2-LG7. I would recommend purchasing that from www.TIGdepot.net, as they will be able to help you with any technical difficulties you might run into with your Everlast machine. The amperage contro...

Re: Help/Advice needed on thin sheetmetal - TIG

I would just like to welcome you to the forum and suggest the CK Steady-Grip for amperage control. I too am a paraplegic. The Steady Grip gives me the control I need without so much wobble as regular thumb controls. My welds are much more uniform and I don't stub my tungsten nearly as much. Hope th...
