    Really liked the Bernard yesterday, but here's that "heavier duty" one I put on today -

    Only thing I don't like is the nozzle is much larger so I have to run my wire out some more.

    Forgot to mention, the Tweco's going on the Lincolns are pretty nice too.

    Everyone's getting a new MIG gun.

    I can honestly say Ive never thought twice about a welding gun. Only thing I like is having a flex head tig torch. But I can roll with a standard one.

    With 3 classes per day, and students of different ages, you're bound to get some people that don't care and abuse (or simply fuck up out of stupidity) tools and/or equipment.

    Instructor decided to get "better" guns versus the standard replacements.

    Fortunately we stick to the same station we initially choose, but students bounce from one to another to mess with another student's machine if they want to try something.

    Package arrived!

    Since I invested in an IPS (version 2) LCD, I bought a new shell (black) and buttons (white) -

    20211021_134455.jpg

    Now I'm just wondering which one to 'upgrade'

    20211021_134358.jpg

    Pros and cons are -

    Silver body is noticeably scratched, but retains all its stickers.

    Black body is in great shape, so doesn't warrant replacement but then I'd have 2 black ones.

    Silver console has beat up buttons.

    Maybe I'll take apart both, replace the black console with the new black shell, and swap the buttons from the Black console over to the Silver one.

    Honestly crowd sourcing petroleum doesn't seem that radical from my pov, but you'd know better

    It's all original.

    Tested the screen -

    Ribbon cables are a tiny pain, but at least now that it's all apart I can clean the insides -
