I say Re-noob because it's been 20 years since I've touched a welder or a torch. I was in an accident that left me paralyzed in 91' and recently was hit-n-run by some Idiot I fared pretty good ( skin Grafts To my Back ) but my wheelchair Didn't make out very good. Frame is Pretty Bad off and needs to be replaced and with my income being a $400 a month pension + social security I just can't see Dropping $1650 on a frame when I can get an Everlast PowerTig 250EX for a few hundred less.

I plan on making a new frame/battery box combo and fixing all the mistakes the mfg made in the first place. I can get rid of the cheesy swing away footrests and integrate something functional and good looking.

So be prepared, I will be watching all the videos I can and asking a ton of questions until I get familiar with this new welder.

Anyway , Hello From Orange, CA
