Welding Tips and Tricks

Well I've been wanting to get one for a long time and a friend got a price for me I could live with so I'm now the owner of a Miller Dynasty 350.
I couldn't stretch the money for the full Tig Runner kit so I'll rob the water cooler of my OTC Tig and build a weld cart myself. I've used a friends one and I know the basics but now I can explore what it can do at my leisure.
Sorry about the blurry pic but I think my boss had just about had enough of me on the phone today.
Regards Andrew.

Very nice - wish I had enough Tig work to justify one & the dollar to pay for it.
I now pronounce you " Man & Welder ! " - hope you'll be happy together !

Congratulations. That machine opens up endless opportunities, especially for more industrial applications of aluminum.

Very nice!

Too many damn functions....

Well, it's finally up and running.
It took a bit longer to build the cart than I'd hoped but I could only work on it over the weekends so I'm pretty happy with how it's turned out.
I also had a couple of dramas with incorrect gas and water fittings but luckily a LWS was open not too far away on a Saturday morning.
The major drama was a series of water leaks in the brand new Trefamet Tig torch where none of the fittings were done up and a hose blockage in the water cooler.
Still all is well and it's struck it's 1st arc and I'm ready to put it through its paces.
Regards Andrew from Oz.

That is a sweet setup.

I envy the features. I can't convince the boss of the value of buying advanced features.

Post up some pictures of the new welds!

Only when they are worthy of actually taking photos of.

Nice cart and nice machine. I looked at that machine. Too rich for my blood these days.
