Show Us your Welders!

I use TIG for carbon steel less than .050", aluminum, titanium and stainless. I appreciate the usefulness of TIG, but I find the setup to be annoying because there are so many steps. This high mileage Miller Dynasty 210DX was my best friend until I got a lathe. It is an absolute bombproof workhorse and runs stick electrodes like a dream. Very nice to stick weld with.

I MIG when I am in a hurry. I use .035" ER70S-2. This Millermatic 252 is another bombproof workhorse. You gotta love a transformer welder.

My welders live behind my benchtop milling machine. They are all on carts, and I roll whichever cart that I need for a particular welding job over to the welding table. I always roll all of the carts away when I use the milling machine so that chips or cutting fluid don't get on my welding carts. I usually machine on steel, and cutting fluid and chips do make a mess over there.

My name is General Zod! :tranquility: :grin: It's just barely getting broken in, lol. I was running the iCold pulsed-spray program just recently for the very first time, and it is absolutely killer!!
 
Hahahaha Okay General Zod! That is one sweet power supply, actually you have quite a few sweet power supplies! Enjoy!!
PS; Just got back into Analog, picked up a VPI Prime, having a blast listening to a lot of old albums.
