Picked up this guy last night. Came with the cart, a full tank, all the filler in the pics, some extra tungsten etc. $1k Im pretty sure it was only used a handful of times in the last few years. Now I need to get some 8awg wire run from the garage to the panel box. joy ![http://clubhousecustoms.com/gallery/albums/album41/DSCF2627.sized.jpg](http://clubhousecustoms.com/gallery/albums/album41/DSCF2627.sized.jpg) ![http://clubhousecustoms.com/gallery/albums/album41/DSCF2628.sized.jpg](http://clubhousecustoms.com/gallery/albums/album41/DSCF2628.sized.jpg) ![http://clubhousecustoms.com/gallery/albums/album41/DSCF2630.sized.jpg](http://clubhousecustoms.com/gallery/albums/album41/DSCF2630.sized.jpg) Dan ---

Got the welder wired in today with the help of my fater in law. Just ran out and tried it. Works sweet, I think Im gonna be in the garage alot now, haha. Here is literally my first pass with it. I could never lay down a row like that on just a flat piece with my buddies TIG. Not sure if its the machine, or a different tungsten or luck. ![http://clubhousecustoms.com/gallery/albums/album41/DSCF2634.sized.jpg](http://clubhousecustoms.com/gallery/albums/album41/DSCF2634.sized.jpg) Dan ---

Shit, with all the material and stuff, even if you only use it 4 or 5 times, it’ll pay for itself vs paying someone to tig up something. Mix in some side projects and it could literally pay for itself. ---

(which is still a good deal imho) [/quote] It seems like Im always welding something or working on some new project. Its just like any other tool… do I NEED it, not really, will I use it, hell ya. Pretty much Im out of “small” tools to buy.
