Nice work. Its nice to do something for yourself once in awhile. I am trying to finish my new welding table but I am so busy welding I am using it unfinished. I am dying to try out my new Syncrowave 210 but can't find time. Friday it will happen! Keep them pics coming...this thread has gone cold :)

Hey Craig...I see the Syncro 250...just wondering about the invertig...did you just want an inverter or does the 250 spin the electric meter to hard?

wanted an inverter for the size and yes too
keep the meter from spinning so much
plus smaller foot print. i will be retiring
and moving my stuff to my other house
so if the inverter works out ill sell the
250. one less machine to move.
i have a garage full of stuff......
