[Rocrat]

Hey Mark,
Good to hear you guys are growing bigger , I have been lurking here for a couple years already and have seen the progress .
I put my order in on the 10th already , done and payed for ,250 EX , W300 ,SCC pedal and a couple torches , just hope I make the cut as I have watched you guys run out of stock rapidly as you say . I literally got a boat to catch haha

And now you are literally waiting on a slow boat from China.

The day my ship came in, I was waiting on a train.

Got part of my order Friday , a direct shipment from SSC in Ohio the aftermarket pedal Everlast sells .
The pedal came well packaged .
Not sure how to link pic so I may attach one per reply

It comes with a hand drawn connection schematic

Good foot surface with grip tape surface for good traction

A textured rubber undersurface to stop the pedal sliding around

Not sure how the pedal comes apart to change out a worn pot.Looks like a type of rivet . Not like my Miller pedals that pull apart , but all up a good solid pedal

Hang on to her T , a dirty hand woman is hard to find , you should give her some helmet time , she may turn out a good metal stitcher , enjoy your vacation

[Rocrat]

That's great , enjoy your machine , but whatever you do pay at least a little attention to the old lady during the vacation or you will regret getting the machine because she will make your life a misery

Hey Mike , I was just commenting on Travis' smoker , I don't have place on my boat for a smoker , just gotta build a fire pit on the beach and build the smoker outta banana leaves ,then lay back till the fish is done .

That works. I have seen (and been burnt by them) grills attached to a pole that fits in a rod holder. Maybe a smoker version...

my powerultra 205p made it here today yippie so far so good used plasma cutter on 110 and 220v have a tiny bit to do on my 220v line was not sure what plug came with it if any but was a nice surprise it came with both a 110v and the 220v plugs nice so far so good iam pleased with the look and feel of it 45 pounds shipping more to come later today ........thanks oleg for the sweet deal

Awesome Travis , that's cool ,and you get a plug on the end , I wonder if my EX 250 will have a plug ? My W300 cooler came today , all in one piece , also opened it up to check if all well inside and to check hose clamps for tightness , all was good ,only thing I found that could be better is to put the two hose clamps and two quick disconnects in the same ziplock bag as the manual instead of just thrown in the box . If the box gets torn open in transit , you are out of business till you get them replaced . Expecting the 80 Lbs tig tomorrow , hope I get the strong young bucks handling my package during transit instead of some of the old guys rolling the box around and trashing the product .
I wonder how many claims Oleg and the guys get for damaged goods ?
For a small fee Everlast could ask for more substantial packaging that would protect the units better . I received a Micro Mark lathe that was extremely well packaged by Taig in China at the retailers request after getting a few damage claims and there was no increase in the retail price .
Thanks Oleg and Everlast for the first part of my purchase

ok now I need to know is it normal for the plasma plug to be loose where it connects to the big pretty green box the other plugs all fit nice and tight the one for plasma will wiggle inside the socket when fully turned counterclockwise till it stops my torch is a kind of purple color if that helps ..............thanks
