Anything welding

Defiantly on par with tiger disks. I ran 7 " tiger disks and i like the 7" leigh high valley disks more .

 

I ordered some cutoffs and flap based on this rec as well, should get them next week.

 

You will not be disappointed I buy them by the hundreds and will not buy them anywhere else. I also by my band saw blades from them they are top notch as well.

Next time you guys order get a few carbide burrs if you have a 1/4" Die grinder they are worth their weight in gold.

Sweet! I have gone through a ton of cutoffs getting my bumper to where it is now, hopefully these last a bit longer.

 

Cool, I'll try some of the burrs next order. Good ones at reasonable prices certainly are worth their weight in gold in those times you need one!

 

Yep I think I have about 30 different sizes They are great to have.

 

What do you use for chasing plasma cut holes, Jerry? I've got some nice cobalt bits and a drill doctor to re sharpen my bits, but I can't help but think there's a better bit/tool

 

I just use drill bits at a slow speed. Or a carbide bit

 

Leigh Valley Abrasives are the best and their products last as long as any competitor name brand.

 

I use viking drill bits at about 240rpm with lots of cutting oil. If i plan on drilling the hole out I under size the holes and drill them from the back side the bits last longer that way.

 

Awesome! Thanks

 

HA! we welded a kid in the tool room in Ag back in high school. He was the FFA president, and the biggest piece of shit human I had ever met at the time

ok guys im looking to get this welder. is it a good choice for a begginer?

 

I would suggest at least going with the 180.

 

Doesn't that mean i have to have a 220?

Yes it does. But for offroad truck parts, I wouldn't really trust a 110v welder. Not enough power IMO.

 

I have this plug in my garage.
I believe its a 220.

 

There's more than enough power in any of the 120 volt name brand welders. 230volts in a MIG is overkill for majority of applications.

My Miller Autoarc 120 volt welder is excellent example of a 120 volt MIG welder. Had a 230 volt Hobart and there was no advantage.

The problem with the 230 volt MIGs, is you lose the portability with 120 volt available almost anywhere.

 

Look like a Nema 14-50. Should be a 50A 220v plug. Not the typical you'd see on a 220v welder (usually a 6-50) but I dont see why it wouldnt work if you swapped plugs. I'm no electrician though.
