I was @ Canadian Tire today and saw this for sale for $11. How could I go wrong? I picked up 2. Quality is OK, but what do you expect for that cheap. :lol:

That looks good for $11. Hopefully it's not set at 89 degrees or something like that! :lol:

90 degrees in Canada is like, 185 degrees in the U.S.

Celcius/Farenheit?

I just ordered my Lincoln Square Wave 175 today and need to make a welding bench. I figured this clamp would make life much easier.

I have been watching for a year and no used TIG machines come up for sale in my area. I decided on a transformer machine because I know how simple and reliable the are. More pics when the welder comes in.

Steve, I think you meant that something that is worth $90 in the US, costs us $185 in Canada! lol

their stuff's not always 100% (i normally only buy stuff that's on sale and i know is gonna get beat up), but they do have a really decent "wtf" policy
