New toy on the way

[Sundown]

Ok the deal is done and the TA is shipped to its new owner. First let me say that the TA was my first tig welder and I would recommend it to anyone as it worked flawless for me. As many of you know I bought it because of its value as compared to the Dynasty200DX that I really wanted. Well I really never stopped wanting that Dynasty200DX (notice I didn’t say need here, just want). So now I am in a better position to get whatever I want (within reason) and with that in mind I ordered a Dynasty200DX from my local LWS today. I did not get the contractor kit as I don’t care for the miller remote so I ordered one from SSC controls (in chrome no less), it appears to be a dead ringer for the one that came with the TA185 which I liked very much. I have enough torches, and I only need to make up a work lead and clamp. Good thing it will be a few days to get here as I thought when I built the tig cart I made the shelves big enough to fit the Dynasty, seems I was off an inch or so in the length, so they will need to be modified. No problem as I wanted to do a drawer like Rocky did on his cart anyway. Well that’s the story, oh yeah, the power upgrade I spoke of is mainly to get another 230V line so I can use both the plasma cutter, and the new 230V compressor I am going to get, at the same time. Pictures to come.

What specifically do you want the dynasty to do that the TA won't??

I thought you were getting a 300?

I don't recall saying I was getting a 300, just that I wanted more amps ... well, 15 amps is more. No great mystery here, I always wanted a D200DX ... just because it's what I wanted ... now I can afford it and I am not getting any younger and if I can have what I want, then thats what I am going to get. As to your question ... nothing I can think of, I just want it to be a Miller Dynasty 200DX instead of a Thermal Arc 185TSW. I am, as they say indulging myself.

[katiebo]

Glad you're indulging yourself, it's not like you haven't earned it

I coundn't agree more.

You will get there I am sure, BTW what sort of shop in town is your wife trying to get? I am guessing it has something to do with sewing.
