P500 Welder porn.

I’ve been eyeing a Miller 211 welder. I don’t anything to fancy just weld as a hobby and tinker mostly. Well wouldn’t you know. After 10 years with my used when I bought it Lincoln 3200 weld pak. She stopped working today. I’m deep in a project and since I’ve been looking anyways. I pulled the trigger. Little more than I wanted to spend. I’ll tell you what this thing is nice.
What kind of small weld you running and the setup?

i picked up a mastercraft 60/80 amp flux core to learn how to weld with.i wanted something portable without lugging around a tank.so far ,so good.first thing i did was cobble a welding table together.

I have a hobart 140 running it with solid wire and gas works for everything I do but want to eventually upgrade to a bigger miller (like a 250ish size) Im thinking I need a tig first

Nothing in the shop yet, but I've had my eyes on an Everlast Lightning MTS 275 w/ water cooling for quite awhile now. Does MIG/AC TIG/DC TIG/stick with some pretty awesome features. Its not Team red or blue, but they're getting phenomenal reviews and would be perfectly fine for a home gamer such as myself. One day I shall have one.

Nice!
That will serve you well.
I have a Hobart 210 I think is the cat's meow.

I've got a Lincoln AC/DC buzz box that I've had for years, along with a little flux core wire welder. I've been toying with the idea of a nice Miller but keep spending money on SxSs & Wireless peace keeping devices. What'd that cost you if you don't mind me asking?

 

[DDDonkey]

I run a Miller 211 like yours and a WeldPro200 for Tig and stick.

I bought myself a do it all for my birthday this year. Been using a Lincoln 225 amp stick welder my dad bought about 54 years ago. (And still use it.) I wanted something I could use with 120/220 volt. Used the flux core wire option for first time this month and it is sweeeet!

Buddy of mine bought a cheap 30 amp one off Amazon for like $200 it's rated for ¼" it works good if you push enough air through it you can cut closer to ½" but it's a ROUGH torch like cut

i'm guessing the cheap ones use standard consumables,nothing i can't pick up online?

 

[DDDonkey]

Yes, I picked up a set of extra consumables through Amazon at check out for $20 is so. As long as you have clean dry hair and you keep the tip from dragging on the torch your consumables will last much longer.

Locally was 1650 plus tax. Ouachita Parish La has a high sales tax.
