That welding machine is so so smooth, it is a pure delight. It has made me look like an expert. I also have a Dynasty 200DX, I thought that was a great stick welder but when I got the CST I was just blown away by it. Good decision, you will not regret the choice.

First weld with new CST 280
Thanks guys for helping me decide which welder to get for my construction company. Truth be told - I welded in the marine construction biz when I was a young kid .. many moons ago. Hoever, this is the first time I picked up a stinger in over 20 years. Here is my first test weld on 6" pipe to 1/2" plate. Yes - I know I didn't remove the mill scale or prep. It was only a test to see if I could get back in the saddle.
I think it was a bit hot at 180 amps. 7018 (I forgot how forgiving it is). 1/4" fillet. Feel free to provide constructive feedback.
Thanks,
