Thx for the good words.  :beerchug:

My welder is a Lincoln PowerMIG 215. .035 hard wire with 75/25 gas. Beats every Miller welder I've ever used...A welder/steel worker by trade....Lota of Miller exp. If ya want smoooooth as butter mig welding, lincolns are the way to go. :yesnod:

By the way, this is were I work during the day-

lincon power migs are by far the best welders that i have used. my dad has a 255 that he is going to sell to me so he can get a 355.

lincon is okay. Thats what I learn from but it was small sp100. but now I have a miller 200 and that thing is GREAT. got it because the price was just right. (FREE)  :gap:. But sick built I like the dash. You caging it right? I really would like to see how that is going to come out.  :thumbs: :thumbs:

Nothin new to report really. At a stand still till some $$$ comes in. I did build a pretty cool stainless steel bridge at work. About $3k in materials alone.  :yikes: 2x2 .120, 4x4 .120, 1.5x1.5 .125 angle, and some 1x.125 flat bar. Pretty cool project.





Stainless mig wire on a miller 350p in pulsed mig mode. Wierd :pokinit: to weld with. Took some getting used too. :)

Oh, I did get the front sheet metal for the 'runner-
