Yup, that manual on-torch valve will be like the parking/emergency brake in your car.

Either get used to using it all the time, or set it and forget it (don't use it at all). If you use it only occasionally, you will undoubtedly forget to turn it on once in awhile, just as you've...

autolab, I just noticed this comp. grid at millerwelds.com. You may have one running in your head, but this might bring some things to light.

The Syncs are probably great machines, but the Dynasty's give you so much more control. Plus, they have a sequencer which is great for repetitive...

Cool.

Thanks for researching and sharing that with us, fun4now.

[aphexafx]

I see! Thanks Andy. ...

You paid $85 to have a cable fixed??

No one is going to like the ~wrong mind~ accusations or the POS comments, might tone that down.

I think the controller cables are fine, personally. If you are really frustrated about it, go get yourself a soldering iron and whatever...

I don't understand...a roll cage/chassi, especially for specific team car, not for production, is a very critical piece. Since the team conceivably has the time, why don't they TIG their roll cages and chassis? I know MIG welding produces fine welds that obviously stand up to the task, but I know...

Happy new year! I hope at least a few spark go down your collers because it keep you strong.

[aphexafx]

Yeah, well why not see what we can do? This has already helped me post a few photographs because I know what I can aim for.

I think the reason the above screen still looks decent at that resolution is because there are large areas of the same color which JPEG can easily compress....

Example of my grinds

This is how I've been grinding them, pretty much. [photographs attached] This is a 3/32" done with an AlO2 60 grit, hard grey, 6" wheel on a 3600 RPM grinder. You can tell that I under angled it and then re-angled it, leaving a pretty bad double neck (neck...

fun4now, is that your first TIG torch? I remember when I got mine, it was very exciting. I put a tungsten in it and sat down to practice the movements.

That Dynasty will come soon and when you connect the torch to the machine, you'll be like, "ohhhh yeah..." 200Dx's are...

Wow, thanks Blown S-10 I'll give it a try, sounds good. You're talking about doing all of this on one wheel, right? When you're dragging the tungsten for rough shaping below the shaft (right side) and grinding the tungsten for final shaping above the shaft (left side), what area of the side of...

Oh yeah, you'd have to be pretty [email protected]&# good with a bench grinder to get that kind of finish! Just curious, how close do you get to the CNC pre-grounds with your Piranha?...

[aphexafx]

Right on, man. I really like those welds.

I started with a 200A 26 torch and when I bought the 17 it made a big difference as far as handling goes because it's so much smaller. Now I rarely use the 26, except when I'm showing the welder to someone because it's big and cool looking....

DDA52, LOL! Doctor Who reruns were my childhood.

rb455ho, I emailed Fronius about it, so we'll see what they say...

arcdawg, DEVO is cool...right? Right...guys? Erm...

[aphexafx]

WTF??? then that's too bad!!!

Dude, at this point it's your problem, and if you want it to work you'll make it work. If you can get yourself a welder then go get one. If you can't then you can't, and we can't help you.

Good luck.
