Nice good purchase these are nice machines.

The only thing I dont like about mine is the silly Kemppi torch that you need to buy special adaptors and that to change to an aftermarket torch. Im working on that atm. The TTC 250W torch thats on mine doesnt have a flex head which is kinda a pain at times. And I dont believe I can just buy a flex head for this torch which is highly annoying.

Mine has the watercooler aswell but iv hardly used it yet I want to start using it more now so am buying some gear now to get going.

Who did you buy the CK torch and adaptor through? Im looking at a couple of options.

I think I might buy a CK micro torch due to its flexibility for stainless work and maybe persevere with the big 250W, the big kemppi torch considering its not a flex head isnt THAT bad to use its better than most other non flexheads anyway.

And the torch i got is "CK FlexLoc FL130 2 Series 130amp Tig Torch with 7.6m Superflex Cable, 3/8" BSP FL1325SF"

Thats sweet but I now wonder how im going to connect the water connectors. CK use the same type of silly screw connector on those. Why doesnt everybody use a quick connect on the water? It just seems silly not to imo??

I dont have watercooler on mine, so dont know it.

try ask the place that you get the gear from what you need and what parts there is need to connect it.
