Re: 220 extension cord

Ok. I got 125ft of 10/4. Made myself 100ft and a 25ft extension. Runs great!

220 extension cord

I'd like to make an extension cord for my welder. I was told that I couldn't make an extension bigger than 4ft. What the longest I can make a 220 extension? I need about 75-100ft.

Re: New to mig weld

I have both power supplies available. Hobby at the moment. Make some money. But don't survive off welding. Not yet at least. 200 amps should be enough for me. I was looking at the Lincoln 210 mp.

New to mig weld

Learned how stick weld first. Now looking into a mig welder to learn the process. I don't have anything specific to use it for, but I'd like to have one around to use on future projects.

Re: First Timer

First timer is correct. Thanks for the replies. How many amps are you running the 3/32 7018 rods? 1/8 7018? I went back and ran them at about the recommended amps and what a difference. I noticed that the 3/32 6011 ran good on the regular setup as well. At the moment all I'm doing is burning rods si...

Couple of time the rods stuck and turn red really quick. I was running about 80 amps. The 7014 rods i had trouble keeping ...
