What's everyone's opinions on the new torch and pedal upgrades from Everlast? Go with these upgrades from Everlast or buy with the standard torch and pedal and then retrofit to a CK or other?
Thanks-

Since I just started tigging... I have no problem with either... If you want a lighter more handy torch or you are used to a lighter one upgrade. So far I have no problem with the pedal. It is all I have ever used and works.Quote:

Thanks
They are made in China. I use the WP-18 and WP-20 all the time. For years, and have not had any major issue. The CK with there hoses are nice, but they are more money. Might want to see if Oleg will cut a deal on a WP-20 first, could save a lot of cash. What is the max amps you will be using the torch at? The WP-9 (gas cooled) would be less.Quote:

Most likely it will be either the 210 EXT (first choice) or the 200dx/225lx as second choices depending. Whichever unit I choose, I of course want to make sure I can utilize the full capacity of the unit. (although I could run two different torches)
I used the LX's for years, great machine. Have the 250EX now. I am also inline for the new 210EXT as well. Hope they get here soon. Been awhile before a welder excited me.Quote:

The weldcraft torches are chinese made (or at least all the ones I have seen).
Thanks for the replies. It could well be some of Weldcraft torches are Chinese made also.. Wouldn't surprise me the least. My actual question should have been directed at the quality not the place I guess :) I think if everlast offered the very flexible leads that would be a very good option!
Again, thanks for the options.
That's what I figured you were asking, why I mentioned I have used them for years and no major problem and try before going CK. The WP-18 is just a little clunky sometimes (if you have used smaller torches, some people like it as is). Agreed, a more flexible hose (25') would be a nice option for sure.Quote:
