I too have the MM251 and really like it.What types of things are you going to be welding with your machine?

[garth]

any thing from sheet metat to fab for eqiupment the biggest reason for this purchase is I have one of those (nieghbors ) he sceams every time the trailblazer gets fired up had the cops here 4 times in 6 days in the afternoon well before the noise ordenance time.

We have 2 . Really great machines. The chart inside the cover is very accurate. Just set up the machine like the chart says and it will weld great. Saves time. Whata Neighbor??

[Glenn B]

You cant go wrong with a MM251

[garth]

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO way. the last time the cops came by for mr. to noisy I offered to dig a hole in the back yard they wernt amused at all. so sooner or later we will sell this place and get acrage. and put my shop right in the middle of it.

I love mine!!!! Get the spool gun too, welding aluminum is easy and fun. I do alot of welding on Winchester traps (cast ) .

I took the chart and put it into excel. Got tired of lifting the hood.

Dontcha just love people like that? Your TB is probably less noisy than some of the lawnmowers around and I bet he doesn't complain about them. Sounds like you can already get him for harassment. He is probably the most miserable one in the area and is bent on making everyone else just as miserable.

See if you can rent a trained skunk to pay him a visit.

PS. Great idea!

I am not nice my wife says yesterday I took the muffler off the trailblazer and the service truck and the compressor and let them run while I was working for about 2 hours all pointed to his house while he was out side at the BBQ cops came and told him Quote. Now thats noise and its with in the time of the noise ordance. and told him to have a nice day. bet they will be glad when the 251 gets here. should be the next day or so. also getting a silencer for the trailblazer this month. the kind that is on those big genoraters that the hospitals have you can barley hear them at 30 ft.

Hey, keep us posted on that. I've been wanting to experiment but have been too busy. If you find something that works well and doesn't interfere with any backpressure requirements of the engine, I want to hear about it.

Things get otta control sometimes with people like that, esp. when they have been told to mind their own beeswax (I like that word, beeswax) . The guy across from me has more than a few kids that drive, so he has to park his work truck on the other side of his driveway. A new older lady moved in next door to him a few months ago from upstate NY, she keeps calling the cops that a unoperable truck is parked in front of her house. The cops kept coming and red tagging it even though it moves every day. A few days ago the desk sergent came and told her that the steet in from of her house was public and if she didn't stop, he would take her in for false statements. She is taking pictures every day of the cars and is getting a lawyer while building a case . People like that scare me, you never know how far they will carry things ... watch your back ... and on a lighter note, enjoy the new toy.
