Buy a mig welder!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

That's how I make my manifolds 

Although I'm sure nobody would PAY for one

[96turboracer]

Worth every penny.

Agreed.

I love my Econotig. I've been using it for about three years now, bought it used, and it's always worked great!

That sheet is really confusing me about the amperage control dial, because it absolutely changes all of my aperage settings when using the TIG function 

Anyway, hopefully you'll get the welder back with a minimum of cost involved.

Mig welder is great can take anywhere and can do general repair exhaust work in no time. Buk doesnt get that the few people who make a living at performance stuff are fuckin on another level with ungodly amount of years behind them. Not to mention most were around old school motorheads who taught them the ropes.

Chris! You are crushing buks dreams!!! How dare you sir!
We all would like to see more fail

[NoPistons!]

I didn't feel like going through all 6 pages.  The first pictures on page 1 and then seeing it was a fucking tig?

HOW DO YOU SUCK THAT BAD?    It looks like you're trying to weld with a plasma cutter using dogshit as filler.  Fuck.


I read page six.  Your welder is FUUUUUUUCKED.   Really.  The first time i jumped on a tig machine i could run a bead.  It looked like flux core because i didn't use enough heat but yeah....it wasn't burning through with a crazy ass ark

I alwasy use NEEDLE SHARP tungsten when i weld steel and i ball it up when i use aluminum.

I also used red for steel and green for aluminum.   


I'm so ready for my tig welder......   Already have my 220v cords, breakers and concrete ready for the shop to get dropped off.....  Just gotta get on my down payment and i'll be pumping out exhausts, manifolds and stuff like that for friends. 

[t_cel_t]

its a little different when you have never seen someone tig in person.

i didnt read all posts...but what kind of gas are you using...should be using argon....thats what we use in our shop....looks like its a gas issue....just my 2 cents...

[jay]

well.. welding shop wants 875 to fix the god damn machine...

[bigwig]

well.. welding shop wants 875 to fix the god damn machine...

Call another.  $875 is a joke.

[malichite]

you took it to airgas

[jay]

well the board alone cost 475... so i guess they are installing the board for 400?

you took it to airgas

friend recommended them


i guess i now need to choose a welder from red d arc.. he says the 100 i paid can be applied towards any red d arc rent to own... they have miller dynasty 200's for about 1700... 12 payments = 150 a month.. not bad.. i can swallow that..

[Joseph Davis]

$800 welder, $875 to fix, I'll give you -$75 plus shipping.

Honestly, think on a price and LMK.

[buk9tp]

Why replace a board than can be fixed with a few hours, a multi meter, and some sense?  Welder boards are not that complex and at the very least dc amprage And gas control should be able to be salvaged with a hasty runthrough of the welder and possibly bypassing some digital controls. It's a fucking power supply, for christ sakes. 

I'll give you -25$ picked up. 

[Joseph Davis]

buk, stop arguing and trying to do business with yourself.

[chris]

600 dollar new mig welder seems like a great idea.

im selling my sc61 turbo kit (for a sad 1200 bucks)

then i figure i can sell the busted welder for 400..

civic i got in the backyard for 1500.. not to mention i got a buyer for my crx for 2700.. i might be able to buy the welder flat out..

if i can atleast manage a nice chunk of change as a downpayment i can put down a decent downpayment... and make my monthly payments less
