    Did you try calling them? I had some issues with the ground/polarity and they helped me troubleshoot and sent me some Miller parts (no charge :D)

    replaced PTC1 thermistor again and now the welder is working better than ever. Must have used a bad one for a replacement. Good thing I ordered 5 :D

    Was looking over some things on the truck last night and came to the realization I needed to add some more protection for the ram. Probably not really necessary, but I was bored. Made it up but haven't put it on the axle yet. The one end will but up against the panhard/ram mount and the other short leg welds to the axle tube.

    Also got a sweet garage sale find last night hitting a few early bird specials on Wednesday night. Picked up an ancient Milwaukee 1/2" chuck drill. Its low speed, 350 rpm full load speed. Needs a new cord, so put that on the list, lol.

    Well got the call a little while ago. I didn't get picked for the UA this year. Oh well, I am thrilled to have made it this far! See what a couple guys can do in a garage given enough free time! :D
