Topic

The choice of weldoing machines depends on several things. I would have a hard time investing very much money in a nw machine when the antique Lincoln that spends most of it's time just collecting dust can be used. Having grown up with stick welders and using a TIG unit at work for the last quater century I have never felt at ease with the MIG units. I'm not bashing them but just never spent much time getting to know the process. When I weld at work it usually is a TIG (stainless steel in a food processing factory) or a stick for cast or carbon steel pipe with water or steam. I do have to admit that MIG works great on first pass pipe tie-ins that never seem to shut the flow off completely.

Turfman,
Would that be a Sherman 3spd on your 8N? We had a 52 with fel and an old Henry Backhoe, talk about optimism! The Sherman was the only sane thing about the rig. I spent many summer after school let out trenching sewer lines in the country with that rig.
