225lx torch

[DAC45]

Oleg responded to an email I sent this evening. Looks like he is going to be able to have a wp9 added to the shipping of the 225lx I ordered. Hopefully it goes out this week.
I'll probably continue to use my mig for the larger welding projects but will likely get a cooler (when funds are replenished) so I have the option with the tig on bigger projects.
I hope the everlast wp9 has pliant hoses as I'd hate to have to struggle with that up here in the inland north west when it is frozen.
It'd be nice if there was a way to compare the size of the torches online. Maybe a couple of side by Sid pictures.

There are a couple of side by side pics comparing a WP20 to the OEM WP18 in this forum. It looks like the difference between a jackhammer and a small ball peen hammer.

So you're mounting sights on a Saiga 12. Interesting! Kind of like channeling that high volume of lead that it can deliver.

On the cooler. When you get going on it, you can get some antifreeze that miller sells for about 20 bucks a gallon, or the stuff that wal-mart sells for your RV water supply for about 4 bucks. In either case, distilled water is the coolant of choice.

I'd like to try both the wp9 and the wp20. would be nice to have the portability of an air cooled torch!
