Same thing with my last welder (old craftsman mig). It didn’t have a good setup for gas. Tiny little plastic tube with push fittings that didn’t fit on any of the gauges I had. Been looking for a better one for a few years but don’t follow them closely. Decided that versatility would be best and Mike made this one hard to resist.

 

That's funny. We cooked 20lbs of turkey, made four huge pans of Tetrazzini. Been a while since we did the
yearly tradition that my mom and I started. It never gets old.

Morning Krew. Shop progress finally started yesterday, lots of destruction leading to concrete this weekend.

 

Would have been nice had they been that cheap when they came out many years ago

 

I started out with a Lincoln 120v flux core welder. Got where I could weld pretty good with it. Then ran across a big 220v wire feed with gas. Damn what a difference gas made along with more power. Plus getting to use 33 lb spools of wire that were much cheaper than the 12 lb ones. Had a small 40lb tank on the big welder when I got it. Ended up trading a big o2 tank for a 125 Co2 tank. It was the same price to fill both the 40 and the 125.

 

Good morning Everyone
