Finished a new welding positioner project that I have been working with a local machine shop on. Ran some tests, works well. Played around last night running some autogenous welds with the torch strapped to my steady-rest. These were done at 2pps. Different amp settings for the different spots. I gu...

I was actually just looking at their website today. Mostly the trailing shields. Id like to start to learn titanium, and figured their training cups would be beneficial. Have you done any Ti with their training cups?

ok... reverse the order in my previous post. lol. They came out in the reverse order of what I uploaded them in.

Aloha guys. I almost always use a gas lens. Tried it when I first started to tig and never went back. M. Furick now makes clear cups that can handle being used for AC. And let me say they are sweet. Makes it so much easier to see whats going on. I also use Furick cups a lot for stainless, and the co...

Did these guys last night for a coworker. Hes using them as fishing bells. 2" Stainless pipe, turned on a lathe to .070T. The top is .020T. The thin top made it a little challenging to not blow through it. Very nice! I have to ask though...what is a fishing bell? When I was a kid we had little...

That Squarewave Tig 200 is a great machine. I had one and like it very much. At first glance the ally in the first pic looked like it was anodized to me? The grain and shine threw me off I guess. Nice work.

Others, thanks for the kind words

Thanks Rick

Pretty damn nice welds for doing ally for only 3 weeks! Nice job! Just make sure youre getting the weld bead down into the joint and penetrating. I only say this because I have made this mistake when I first started on ally and tried to weld pipe. It looked great on the surface, but when I cut it in...

My Sync 250 does that sometimes, too. I think the way I got it to stop was by oscillating the torch in little circles as I let off the pedal. Thanks. I was trying that as well, but with the same result. I think adjusting the tungsten size in the menu will do the trick, as Mike suggested. Going to t...

In my version of my user manual, sections 6-3 and 6-4 describe getting into the user setup menu and then describe the start parameter adjustments. Just know that the minimum amp setting in the start parameters controls the minimum amps overall, including your end amps. Thanks Mike. I was using 3/32...

Aloha guys. Ill jump in on this. Some stuff from this week. Mostly fishing stuff. 316 stainless stuff. Mahalo

Ok that sounds good. Ill review the manual and see how to get to that adjustment. It would make sense if it wasnt set to zero, for that to be happening to me.

Ill post up a better pic. Its not the round spot in the middle that im referring to. For these, i leave the rod about 1/8" past the tube, and pulse round the edge. So that center spot is gonna be there. The nodule im referring to is actially really small, jut under the round center. Hard to se...

Wow. Hit the motherload. Congrats to being back in the chair.

Ive only noticed it on stainless. I really dont thinks it the material though, as ive worked
With the batch of stainless with my old machine, and it didnt do the same. Seemed to run fine on AC.

Aloha everyone. I am new to the forum but have been reading these posts for some time. Great group.. Anyway, into my questions. I have a new Dynasty 210DX that was purchased new. Previous to this I was using a Lincoln Tig 200 Squarewave. I have found that with my Dynasty, when I try to ease off the ...
