Deltaweld Phase

[stickermigtigger]

Was always weird to see my father holding his phone to his chest. He’d be in his recliner with his eyes closed. Could times I thought he’d died. LOL

Parhausguy, can you ask him for the model number? Be a good lead to learn more.

Seems like I saw a while back some of the new ones had WiFi (which by the way is an electromagnetic radiation)....

I sure haven’t found a document that even mentions single phase capability.

Are you referring to things like this BushyTails?

I just talked to my father and we had a good laugh over the fact that where he gets his pacemaker installed and maintained, THE HOSPITAL, is the most dangerous environment to use a pacemaker.

This app sucks!!!!!

Cut off:

Another EMI source is microwaves from an microwave oven. I’ve heard all my life that those interfere with pacemakers yet my 88 year old father has been microwaving TV dinners for 20 years to no ill effect. He stands right in front of the thing...

I did a little looking and one thing I found is that high voltage lineman, the one’s who climb out on a wire from a helicopter wear exactly this type of clothing to protect themselves from EMI (electromagnetic interference)(HF is an EMI). They encounter a level of EMI a welder would not. Maybe they...

Looking at a dual station Deltaweld 450.

I thought those were three phase only.

Says 3 phase on the tag.

Miller manual site is hosed this morning so I can’t get the manual.

Owner claims it can be converted to single phase by moving taps in the back....

Who wrote this app?!??


My first thought would a Faraday cage vest work. LOL

Any way, curious about any of your experiences around this.

Please don’t threaten me with death. I was dead for eternity until born so I’m pretty sure dead for eternity after...

This is the rest of the post this cheap app didn’t publish:...

Anyone welding with a heart pacemaker?

I’m told it is a no no. I don’t have one but with my luck and circulatory conditions I could easily become a candidate.

I’ll alway try to find ways around being told ‘I can’t’ do something so I’m looking for workarounds for...

Guy in a welding video was making huge whip and pause like motions in the bottom of a deep grove with 6010s on a backhoe bucket. He said he was “rod jacking” to fill in a gap in the root. He then changed to 7018 for normal fill passes for the rest.

I thought at first he might be having...

Now THAT’s a good idea!

That is the guy, and this is the article:

But check out the guy’s history:

There is an article about this topic somewhere on the web about but I can’t seem to find it. Basically it discusses all the myriad of available gasses and mixtures and that most of them aren’t needed; they’re the creation of gas supply companies used to increase sales.

I could read...

Thanks for bringing that option up! Gonna have to think about that more now. I’ve worn single vision distance for several years. Just got tired of bi-focals. I’ll have to talk to him about how far is distance in this context. If distance is from 2 feet to infinity I’ll probably have to opt for...

I’d probably try a 6010.
