hunting a wire feeder

[ryanjones2150]

Hey gang, I’m in need of and hunting a used wire feeder for an old regency 250. I’m combining forces with a machinist and putting together another shop. That shop currently has that old regency with a 30a and I need to add a feeder. So if any of you have one collecting dust I’d like to make a deal on it. Preferably one that is in good working order and already has the gas solenoid.

Thanks!

I am looking for a 22A myself...Bob

Well if I find two I’ll give you a shout and split it.

Wow--those things can be pricey! There are three on ebay, 800-1100 bucks, plus shipping! Hope you can do better than that!

I have a Miller S-32P I could send your way. It's voltage sensing so you would need to have your Regency set to on instead of remote. It works, though the case is a bit beat up.

I’m not familiar with that machine so I’ll look it up later and check it out.

My regency is old and I think the best feeder would be one that just adjusts the WFS. I think.

Send me a message with how much you want for it. I probably won’t get to looking that machine up until later today. I have my hands in this gear box for my south bend and I’d like to wrap it up today.

Thanks John!

Better off buying a S-60 at a industrial auction. Cheap and they are the most reliable feeders ever built.

[ryanjones2150]

Thanks for the tip, I’ll keep an eye out for that one!

[ryanjones2150]

Educate me a little on this, Cruizer. What is it about the s-60 that puts it above the others? There are few of them on eBay, mostly with a power source, which I don’t need.

There are allegedly some at the link below at $725 CND with free shipping. I presume shipping in Canada. You would need to verify what kind of hassle and cost it is to get it across the border and down to your location.

Thanks, I’ll take a look at that link. I appreciate it!

Bob I have a 22a I was trying to sell. Message me for details.

just a over looked feeder that can run 2 or 4 roll. Really nothing to go wrong in it. A little bigger than a 22A, way better drive, and can be had much cheaper.

[ryanjones2150]

Roger that. Thank you. I don’t believe I’ve seen an s60 by itself, just with the power source included in the sale. I don’t need a power source. At least, I don’t need another power source.
