Cool fabbing Kyle.

Nice! I gave up on my exhaust patching. Think I've had one more go at it since I posted about it here. Had a ton of stuff on my plate here recently but have still been watching locally for welders. The few I was watching all sold. The Lincoln tombstone I was asking about sold in a day. Even...

While I do truly appreciate the offer. The logistics seem to be a limiting factor? Quick question here. Are the newer Lincoln tombstones the same transformer tech as the old ones? I may have a lead on a ac/dc tombstone. Used twice, basically brand new. $375cdn ask plus some extras, gloves...

Now don't be teasing me Jim. If I had the time someday that's a trip I'd love to make. But it'd look odd strapped on my bike. :D I had a click on your link Gary. It looks like it'd take a bit of figuring out in order to work it effectively? But I am still waiting on my first cup of coffee this...

I have nothing closer that strikes me as a deal. The cheapest ac/dc machine local to me(under an HR) is another thunderbolt for $500 ask. And then there's a AC only buzz box for $250. Not a whole lot. I'm fairly certain that other thunderbolt I was watching for $400 didn't sell. I think the guy...

Curious if anyone here knows anything about this welder? Brand or whatnot? Seller wants $100firm but is a good distance from me(about 4hrs one way)I may take my car and try and go get it next weekend if it's legit and still available. It's been up for sale for a few weeks. Edit. I guess...

It was where I ran my tree business out of and was decent for that. Although a boom truck was never fitting in those bays unfortunately. I feel very fortunate to have it that's for certain. For a strictly personal shop now it suits my needs just fine. Bonus is the setting is very private too and...

It's a magnet. For holding metal together for welding. There's some little blue ones on the other side too.

Mostly I feel like I just need to get rid of some shit. I had a big racking system in the shop for awhile but didn't like it. That's 12' ceiling so I'll never be using to much of the wall space unless I want to use a ladder a bunch I guess. Some smaller shelving would be alright. Just gotta tidy...

The disaster zone. Where dirty deeds are done dirt cheap. Seems it's a constant struggle to keep it halfways organized. But I still can get sh-t done in it!

Inspired by Rajan.......mini battle wagon. Lol. Outside of the fortress errr I mean Man Cave!

Yah. I'll stick with a older transformer I think. The price will be right and still cheaper than even a cheap inverter machine of the same capacity. And as I've learned a much much much greater chance of never having any real issues. It's tempting to just buy a old ac machine on the cheap but I...

Thanks again. Good explanation. I think I'll be just fine with a ac/dc transformer for what I will be doing. I really am kind of stuck on getting a thunderbolt. When I have some days off I may bug that guy about the one listed. Depending where in the area he's listed in he is. He could be as...

Air conditioner. lol. No a/c in my shop, just heat. In summertime if needed I just pop open the doors. I do have a lean to on one side that I could store it in but that's the wrong side of my shop for metal/mechanical work. That's the bike side so I'd have to run the leads across one bay. Still...

Are you meaning the electric powered generator that Kyle was talking about? The problem for me is availability. The used market is small. Locally there are two welders available to me under $1000+. The one I posted about and a 225amp a/c buzz box brand one for $250. If I search out to up to...

My main concern with a portable engine drive unit is ease of use in my setup, as well as cost. Most of my welding will be in my shop and espescially in the winter it seems it would be a pain to run the leads in and out. Also need long leads to run it where I'd want it or might need it in my...

Canadian. That's more like $420us. Also very limited the used market up here just due to population. But still I will bide my time and wait it out.

The fellow is asking $600cdn for it. I don't think I'll bother him for more info or a pic. Gonna hold tight on that one I think. The right unit will come up eventually.

I was more curious than anything else. Tried googling it and couldn't come up with anything so I thought I'd throw it out here and see. Thanks for the input.

Ok quick question to see if any of you know what sort of old miller welder/generator this is? The ad says 200amp 100% duty cycle. And not much else. Pull start, runs great, will run your house for decades? I'm suspect of that claim but curious none the less. No other pics except for another...
