Sounds like your on the right track, Iv'e had a Dynasty 300 DX for years, and its a great machine, my brother just picked up a Dynasty 210DX tig runner and I was very impressed with it's ability to get right into 1/4" aluminum and also it's low end was very smooth.. Awesome machine..

This should keep the critters from getting into our garbage. New saw works like a charm.

Hahaha lol me included! My wife was a little miffed at me when she got home and tried to pull her car in the garage. lol

Going to make a trash bin for our cabin, gotta keep those darn bear from tearing in to our garbage. Then???

Picked up the Ellis 1600 last night, can't wait to try it out

Looks awesome 5th

What are your settings?

Awesome find!

Quite a few years ago I wanted a Ellis 1600 but because of lack of room in my garage I decided on purchasing a used Scotchman coldsaw, I made a base with heavy duty castors so I could move it when needed.

Try some 5356

Nice job Flo

What brand bender is that?

I have a smith mixer and usually set mine from 25-he to 75-Ar or 30-he to 70-Ar. My local welding supply contact told me th...

We have used one of those where I work for a few years now to sharpen knives and it has worked great, what didn't you guys like about the 1 x 42 " Kalamazoo??

If your talking about DCEN/ Helium on Aluminum, that process has been used longer than I can remember..

Sure is!!

Great looking weld Sam

Awesome work Sam...

I had a weak moment and just bought a mixer.

Yah those micro tig welders are pretty cool, one of my brothers friends has a old Miller micro tig setup with the old analog gauges, I think he said it's stable in tenths of one amp! Evidently his friend specializes in doing nothing but micro welding. If that AHP200 goes down to 10 amps you should b...

I forgot about Tractorbynet, I used to frequent that forum quite a bit b4 I bought my compact diesel.. Good info over there.

Pete

Looks good

Your getting there Gene, like Richard mentioned just make sure to lower amperage at the end of the bead and add extra filler, craters and the end are known for cracking.

Awesome looking beads..

Lol For sure, been there done that. Luckily I didn't damage the torch or lines.. I have this one: http://www.ebay.com/itm/Black-Miller-Coolmate-4-tig-water-cooler-/232354715143 Good luck!!
