which means its less than what NS Dev paid for his & we've all seen what he's done in the space of one week - set up enough demand for
exhausts to cover the cost 4 times over.
Having seen what TIG can look like I'd love to go for it, i just don't have
a) the space
b) the power feed into the garage.

This is similar to my one, managed to strap that for single phase although 80 amp draw on 240v makes the meter spin like a top if you go over 250 amps
!
Mind you usual welding is under 100amp, its the stable arc and fine control thats the key.

I asked about the Miller and he said there was no way it would run on single phase. How did you adapt yours, in case anything similar comes up?
yours, Pete
I went into the RSPCA office the other day. It was so small you could hardly swing a cat in there.

I meant the one that Mark linked to Nat, There was one like yours on but it was a dealer selling it and it didn't make reserve.
