Welding Tips and Tricks

Hey from a mountain top in Virginia! I am a strict hobbyist, I am good at nothing but will try to fix anything. I have a lathe, mill and three welders. I started with a Lincoln sp-125, bought a inverter in a auction(scratch tig and stick) and just recently had the chance to buy a Millermatic 251 with a 130a spool gun. The miller had been in for service on the board(replaced) and the former owner never picked it up. I bought machine for a song. works great! My equip far outclasses my skills but I have fun! Looking forward to learning!

What is the manufacturer/model of your inverter?

Welcome.

Not sure, been painted over and beat up pretty bad but works great. Try to get picture posted of it after I suffer through the daughters ballet performance!

Frankly,

I'm jealous of the lathe and mill...

I've had to "hillbilly mill" so much crap that would be so much easier with a precision tool...

Welcome aboard!

Nice surprise about this shorter form. Can you tell us what it is you are talking/writing about?
Has any info. about this shorter form been posted before (and i just missed it)?

Pretty sure I recently deleted a post identical to "sunniva's". perhaps verbatim. May be autospam.

I'll give it a minute, though... perhaps there's a point. If not, it will go away.
