Maxstar remote issue
I have a maxstar 200 DC (2006 model), when I put it in Hf tig mode and turn on the remote the machine sense it and begins welding but it goes directly to the amperage on the display and will not throttle at all. When I turn the remote off, the machine stops welding as it should. I have tried a thumb...

Generators
As of right now Im running a dynasty 200 dx. I use it for small projects using stick and tig, around 155 amp. It runs off 110 but none of the outlets in my townhouse can handle it. So the easy route would be to run a dedicated outlet/breaker for my machine but I rent and have been told by tge wife that...

(can't seem to edit the post title but auto-correct changed "tig" to tin)
Hello All. Im fabricating another batch of planter boxes in 1/4" 5050, but I'm having major cracking issues this time around. Though the one I've attached a picture of is a funny shape, most are rectangles....1 Photo

Running a cap in 6g position
Fairly new welder here and I got some questions about running a cap in a 6g position. What's the best method? I was taught how to walk the cup when I started but it keeps slipping. Also, it's getting heavy on the bottom and thin on the top? I hold my wire at the very top but it's wanting to fall down...

No AC frequency adjustment after updating syncrowave 210
Hello millerwelds forums! I'm hoping someone out there can help me get AC frequency up and running on my syncrowave 210. (My machine doesn't have the spoolmate capability in the bottom left corner, so it's not the latest model)
Here's the scoop:
-I hadn't had AC frequency adjustment...

Econotig arc problems
I have a used miller econotig that has some age on it but seems to be in good condition. I have it set for DC positive and welding mild steel and it will arc but doesn't seem to be transferring any heat, it just immediately melts the tungsten. Anybody know what the problem could be?

tungsten stability ac tig aluminum problems
Ive been doing a lot of aluminum tig work lately with a Syncrowave SD 180 which i had thought was (and according to specs is) a bit under powered for 3/16" and 1/4" plate. Ive recently got a helium argon mix to get a bit more heat at the weld which is working really well. I no longer need...

Green vs Purple Tungsten
I have recently learned that using green tungsten in an inverter machine is a no-no. I have been welding for over 15 years and I have never heard this until now when I purchased a Dynasty 700 machine. I have used the purple for a while and I am not very fond of it so far. I started using the green again...

330A/BP, another no HF post
I recently picked up an old 330A/BP for my home shop. Tonight was the first time i tried firing it up. I found that the HF isn't reaching my torch. I've seen plenty of threads about No HF on these but mostly focus on the caps or contacts. The machine was pulled out of service and replaced with a new...

Shielding Gas Filters
Is anyone familiar with shielding gas filters? I'm trying to find in-line type filters that I can hook up once the gas has passed through the regulator. I'm finding very fine filters, like .02 or .01 micron, but I feel that is a bit excess for my requirement. In reality, I'd like to find one filter...

Syncrowave 200 shut off & not turning on.
Ive owned this Syncrowave 200 for nearly 2 years. I was welding one of my stainless sculptures yesterday when it shut off. I immediately assumed the breaker flipped. Checked it and it was fine. Even plugged another piece of equipment into the 220 outlet to be sure and its working fine. I inspected all...Last edited by Steve Nielsen; 09-08-2014, 01:46 PM.
