hey guys, im about to buy an Everlast Powerpro 205 multi process welding machine (tig-stick-plasma cut), im super excited about it, once it arrives i'll be doing a nice writeup/ review of it.
wondering if anyone else has one here? Once i get confortable with it, we'll be making some nice parts for the car! you can check them out here: www.everlastgenerators.com -------------------- Former Team 5SFTE pro member ;)

got more practice in today, another hr or so, starting to get a little more consistant and co-ordinated with both hands, i think once i get some extra cash to either build a welding table, or at least get one of those portable "nomad" welding table like jody uses, it will really help, right now im welding on a wood topped bench thats way to high for me, with a peice of 3/8" steel laying on top that i use as a ground point/heat sink
so settings are as follows: 3/16" aluminum diamond plate (welding on the backside) 3/32" 2% thoriated tungsten, ground to a dull point 3/23" 4043 filler rod 160amps max footpedal controlled a/c frequency @ ~125 a/c balance @ ~ 40% a few pics: the first is the overall pratice, the last couple are my best bead so far. got a little hot there right at the beginning, started working the pedal back a little late. still need some work filling that crater there at the end, i gotta work on putting in that little bit of extra filler as i work the pedal more. getting there!!
