Mid-morning Jeepers and Creepers.

Top level slacking going on here today. It's hot and still and not at all conducive to effort.

 

[redline4]

That the one you just ported?

Yes it is.

 

[Slumberjack]

Yes it is.

Lots of compression lol

You want a custom made tig setup for it for free? Has a reoatat hand control for heat. It’s what I used before I got another machine. Works great

I greatly appreciate the offer but that's too much to give away and I do not deserve such generosity.

Little boat anchor that could.
There was plenty of mud in that void to help lube the chain.

Its been a long time since I tig welded anything and I wasn't very good with aluminum. This spool gun seems to be more forgiving for someone like myself

One switch just bypasses the rheostat on the machine and substitutes the one on the hand control then the other switch engages the load contactor so you just scratch start

This setup can only work for steel unfortunately. You need AC and high frequency to tig aluminum unless you’re over 400 amps and welding big aluminum then it doesn’t matter

 

[Slumberjack]

But you can tig some really thin steel with this setup
