Post by: malichite on February 12, 2010, 02:24:23 PM
Just got my tax return.  Going down to the local welding shop to see if I can wheel and deal a good price on the syncro 200, if not, I am going to be ordering it today along with a speedglas 9100Xx.  Ah yeah niggas thats right!

I will have to check it out.  Right now I have my eye on weldfabulous.  Tig and hood plus shipping is 2489.53 so not to shabby I dont think.

 The speedglass  I had used to flash me a lot. Any tight work and the sensors get shadowed. It had a shit sensitivity adjustment too. The $40 northern tools one I have works better. The band is just flimsy.

I did use a $250 miller last night and it was a very nice helmet. Good lens, good adjustments, and the band was comfortable with one of the best drop knocks i've used.

Fuck everyone.  My tax return is no different than any other year.  Evidently complacent white males are no longer worth giving a decent return to.

FUCK YOU!

Thats pretty high i think, I got my sync 200 runner for $1700 delivered bnib. If you look around you can find them for free shipping, buy everything from them and haggle that price down. I know i got a smoking deal but it wasn't like i begged for it. you just need to find the right place and talk to them right.

I have been looking for a while.  Havn't tried to deal yet as I didn't have cash but that starts today, but so far, this has been the cheapest price I could find shipped.

Well, cash talks.  Walked in to pacific welding today and showed them some cash, out the door it went today.  Still a ton of money but just as much as I would have payed online and I got it today!  Got lots of practice to do now but so far I am happy.  Way better then the HF tig!

practice by making me a log for a zc, let me know when/where to send shipping costs.


Actually have all the flanges and pipe for this (actual ZC head flange and not D16).  I am just waiting for my new bandsaw blade to get here and hope to get it together this week.

Thanks, now I just have to get myself up there or fund some time for you to come down and give me some good instruction on it :p

Word!, Ill take a 3" turbo back exhaust.

If your in my area, swing by and we can do it!  Check out ratcityrex's.  That was done on my old POS HF tig.  Will have to post some picks up this week when I finish the 3" in my del slut.

Well, got my hood today.  Thing is awesome.  Only have about 1 hour on it but it hasn't flashed me yet.  Really comfortable.  I really like the big window and side windows.  Makes for really good visibility.

Dont do much while your welding, but in between welds, it is really nice to have peripheral vision.
