new guy here from Canada
Hello to all from Eastern Ontario - Canada EH !:
I've been lurking here for the last week. My new PowerPro 205 is scheduled to arrive tomorrow. I studied welding about 45 years ago when I was in school when they had the big heliarc machines. I have done some stick welding over the years but mostly hobby stuff, never really hard core stuff. Bought a Lincoln 180 MIG two years ago and get a lot of use out of it. started with flux core wire but soon bought the 75/25 mix and cylinder, much cleaner and hardly any smoke in my shop. I'm into 30/31 Model A Fords and currently converting a 4 door model into a pick up truck since all the wood was rotten.
After a lengthy time searching for the right TIG to fit my needs and pocket book along with warrantee, I chose the Everlast PowerPro 205 multi process machine
and I'm excited to try it out. I've been studying the on line manual on what the controls do and I think I understand it pretty good, or at least enough to get started.
I have used my MIG on sheet metal for the old Ford project and got pretty good at smooth welds on the thin metal, however I think I can get more control with
a TIG especially when you look at the controls on the TIG.
