Weld well, weld safe!

Fun4now,
Thanks for the rec on the push button. I considered it, but was worried about the machine settings. I didn't want to be under a car (for instance), and be ready to weld when I find out that I set the sequencing incorrectly, whether it is current, or whatever. I will force myself to learn a finger control, whether it is the one I purchased or a homemade one I brew up.
I can't wait to start playing. It should be interesting because I have never Tig'd before, only gas, arc and mig.

verry cool

looks like quite the starter packet ya got going there.
i also got the ssc foot controle (havent tryed it yet but like the feel of it )

if the finger controle dosent work for you lots have had good results with the push butten on/off option. (just some food for thought)

you will have to give us all a report on the SSC and how you like it

This is starting to sound like a broken record, but put me down for a Dynasty 200DX purchase also. Thanks to everyone who answered questions, and this forum for great archives and easy searches. Here is the list of stuff coming:
Dynasty 200DX
Miller Tig Torch Package, DTP17R
N/S Finger Control Kit
200A Tweco stinger and cable
SSC footcontrol
Various Lanthiated Tungsten

Hopefully I remembered everything. I did go to different places (B&R, Cyberweld, SSC) for the stuff to save some money. Hopefully the finger control works out for out of position welding, or should I say hopefully I can use it well... a lot of my welding will be out of position automotive work.
Thanks again for all the help!
Joshua
