:D

after Xmas we pick it up...800$ has about 1 hour on it (04 model) and comes with a full 120lb bottle to boot!
a friend of a friend got it for his garage, but bought 3 300amp 3 phase welders not long after, and this has sat in the corner since it only has the 15ft gun but we can always get a 25ft in the future
along with a spool gun for alloy

i guess i'll just be using my 135amp matco for thin sheetmetal work or when i dont have access to 220v

the nice thing is that it has the same plug as my Hypertherm900 plasmacutter so i can use the 50ft 60amp 220v extension cord with it too

time for an aux panel in my garage...the 50amp 220v outlet aint gonna cut it no more

i love toys :fr:
