Dog is God spelled backwards. Mine is a bed hog as well.

I bought the Everlast water cooler with the PP256. Have a CO2/argon, (from my little MIG), and a argon tank that I bought for the PP256. Just need to get some more green stuff, (cash and Everlast).

I seem to have a problem when it comes to shopping for a new welder. I keep looking at the next model up, and then the next model up. I always worry that I will buy something and then end up wishing...

It is a Lincoln SP-125. I believe 90 amps

For a welding cart, I like using a small roll around tool box. The drawers are handy to have for all the torch parts. I move the bottle around with a small hand truck. Sometimes I stick weld, so not...

If you go with quick couplers get the ones with a larger inside diameter,(like 3/8"). A lot of the automotive styles are only about a 1/4" inside diameter. This can restrict the airflow to the torch...

I have 3 welders now, and was trying to get by without having 4. I have a 110v Lincoln mig which works well up to about 3/16" steel, the PowerPro256, and a 250 amp gas powered Lincoln that can be set...

Thanks for the info. I went to their web site and the prices were about the same as buying a mig welder. The wire spool sizes also were small, so I imagine the replacement costs would be high,...

I would like to be able to MIG weld with my PP256. Any plans on offering a kit to convert a tig to a mig? I know Miller has a wire feeder for cc welders.
I also have a Lincoln gas powered cv/cc...

7014 works well.

I like the idea of buying American products, but not enough so as to buy an inferior product at a higher price. The CEO's of our corporations seem to be more concerned with their personal financial...

I have the PowerPro 256. It has a lot more features than what the US company's offer in the same price range. If your budget allows for a $3000 or so welder, a Miller Dynasty is a fantastic machine....

I keep my rods in a plastic tube with a screw on cover with a gasket. Even my 7018 rods weld nice, (Low hydrogen rods are real finicky around moisture). What this thread was about was I was curious...

Yes, but according to tech support, my machine only uses AC for it's TIG functions, They say stick is always DC. So I am wondering what is actually being changed when I move the selector from DC to...

I originally purchased the PP 256 for it's TIG functions, (I have a 250 amp AC/DC gas powered Lincoln stick welder already), but the shipping was so quick I did not yet have an argon bottle. I...

I would recommend two separate carts. A cart with two welders, two bottles, a water cooler for the TIG torch, and a half a dozen hoses and cables isn't exactly handy. I have a small Lincoln MIG and a...

Something is different in stick mode when you switch from DC to AC. The amp meter changes, the weld sound changes and the weld looks a bit different.
I tried to check it out with a voltmeter, but...

I was just surprised that a welder that can put out 200+ amps of AC in TIG mode can not do so in stick mode. I am OK with it really, but the manual describes the machine differently than what I am...

While you are updating the manual, please finish the sentence at the end of page 15. It is discussing what the typical connections are for MMA, but it does not give the solution. It says, " For most...

The Powerpro 256 is a multi purpose ac/dc welder, no? If I set it to stick, and ac, it welds in dc? What if I want to weld a stick in ac mode like a 6011?

What happens if I set it to Tig ac, but...

I noticed that when my PowerPro 256 is set for stick mode, the pulse function can still be active, (amperage meter jumps all over the place). I was wondering if anyone has had experience with using...

I went to home depot today and picked up some quick disconnects with a larger inside diameter. They are Husky sku 412 721. The package comes with a couple of males and a female, along with some pipe...

Quick disconnects are available with a larger inside diameter Most automotive styles are set up for 3/8" hose. The inside diameter is only about a 1/4" on the male fitting. Get the ones set up for...

I have been reading that some inverter based machines do not stick weld cellulose type rods such as the 6010 rods very well. Does anyone know how the powerpro 256 units do?
Some of my welding is...
