Re: Adding pulse functionality to a TIG welder

Pretty cool! I used to own a Diversion 180 and I would have bought this pulser from you. On a side note-that one video where you are pulsing between 10 and 40 pps is going to give someone a seizure. I'm with Jody either 1 pps or over 30 pps. Again, great product. Thanks John

Re: 2t setting coming in handy for roll cage torch switch

So here is the setup. At first I didn't like the button position but then I learned to position my hand differently. This is the position I didn't like because everytime you push the button it would transfer to the tungsten moving downward. The next picture is a way I figured to hold the torch more ...

Re: The what I welded today (/whenever) thread (pics please)

Thanks for all the tips and advice Big Gear Head. On the subject of roll cage fabrication for people do I need to be worried about any liability if someone gets hurt in a wreck at the track? Figured u might be able to shed some insight as u have built a few. Thanks John

Re: The what I welded today (/whenever) thread (pics please)

Afr-here is another picture view. The weld is somewhat flat but this image shows it a little better of the profile. Step and pause technique, no pulse, and complete penetration to the mild steel tubing. If a person doesn't have color on anything that you weld, than your heat range is off or you need...

2t setting coming in handy for roll cage torch switch

only problem is I'm used to having foot pedal and my foot keeps wanting to floor an invisible pedal. the torch switch is taking some time to get used to but is certainly getting easier. one less thing to drag around inside car.
