Welding Machines

[metalmeltr]

What welding machines do you guys have acsess to, not just your machines but also the machines where you work and those of your friends. We have a Hobart MIG and an old airco ac stic welder. At school where my dad teaches he has a Solar mig, A 110V Lincon Mig, and my favorite The Three phase resistance spot welder.

And the name of your shop is?

[Black Wolf]

I don't need to advertise that either Bob...

Just get your Grizzly old butt up here, and I'll give you a guided tour.

Heck, I'll even spring for Tim's.

The apprentice just finished "his version" of my Frankenstein Mig Cart - Got all Artsy Fartsy - One less axle - And FENDERS... I'll send 'em to you when I download my camera.

Have a Good One Bud.

Forget sending them post them here so we all can see them

Might just do that, we were sent home yesterday due to a shortage of material so I'll be off for possibly two weeks. But the spring "honey-do" list might kybosh that. I'll get up there Jason. Thanks for the invite.
