welders

Hi guys. 3 years i bought a miller 180 with auto set, and 375 xtreme plasma cutter. Both of them are great machines. just wonderin what kind of welders you guys are useing

 

Miller's all you need.

 

I'd love to learn to TIG. I have a little Hobart 125 and a big Lincoln arc welder for heavy stuff. I am looking for an acetylene setup so I can hammer weld. Tempted to try a HF unit for little practice panels.

 

I have a little Lincoln SP125 Mig plus for sheetmetal. The infinite adjustments are awesome.

A Hobart Iron Man 210 Mig for the bigger stuff

A Lincoln Square wave Tig for all the detail stuff and sheetmetal.

 

Millermatic 211 with auto-set. Great welder. Would really like to get a TIG welder one of these days though.

 

Lincoln 175 mig and an ancient Forney arc welder that you have to pull the leads and move them to a new plug in to change settings on. There is nothing to heavy for that welder to handle though if you can get the amps to it. I've got a Harris torch setup that I've had for 35 years but want a Victor J28 torch to weld sheet metal so I can hammerweld it when I want to. I used those in a muffler shop and they are easy to control as you go and a lot lighter weight than most welding torches.

 

Two Millers. I have had Hobarts, Lincolns and a Craftsman and I am sold on the Miller.

150 Millermatic MIG ( about 14 years old and runs great )
Syncrowave 200 TIG ( 4 years and loving it )
375 Extreme coming soon!

 

Esab 252 tig and miller matic 200 mig.

lincoln Tig! Must be a slow news day!

 

Funny, besides Miller/Hobart i didn't know there were any other welders.

 

Millermatic 180 auto set and Millermatic 210, only the best!

 

Miller Diversion 165 Tig. I have a sp 140 mig, but i never use it anymore. I have a welding engineering degree from Ferris State, and i've run every machine you could ever imagine, and for the money, the little diversion Tig's run better than machines 4 times the cost. I couldnt be happier.

 

Miller all the way !!

3 blue; tig, mig, plasma. 1 red sp125

 

Miller- matic 210, Dynasty 200 DX and Miller 375 plasma

 

ESAB is the shit!
And at work there is Fronius all the way.

 

Fronius some neat features, like their cold metal transfer, but are WAY too expensive.

 

I've always had great luck with all my Miller machines.

I've heard great things from a fabricator friend about HTP machines. They're also made in the USA.

 

I've got a Lincoln 220 stick welder, a Hobart 140 Handler, Purox O/A and a Henrob/Dillion coming in the mail from an old Army buddy in Georgia. I am just not ready to write the check for a Plasma or a TIG (yet).

My wife welds more than I do (she does metal sculpture) and does a fair job of sticking junk together. I need more practice.

 

i sure like my miller 211 w/autoset... and duel voltage is a big plus

 

All blue here, plasma and weld. Six units in total.

 

Lincoln all the way here 3 migs & 1tig 1 Hypertherm plasma love them all!!

 

Princess auto welders all the way. 200$ 220V MIG has worked flawlessly, even if it was built in a Chinese Gulag.

 

Millermatic 250 mig and miller plasma,no complaints from either.

Bought my first Miller last year, a syncrowave 200 and man am I impressed....

 

hobart 187 still learning how to weld

 

I've got a Miller 140 Autoset, and love it! Very convient to be able to plug it in anywhere I go.

 

miller 252, miller spectrum 375 plasma, lincoln 175 tig
love them all.

 

Lincoln SP-200 and a Lincoln Square Wave 275. Buy the best you can afford, it's an investment in yourself.
