bummer that this is the STL version... if it were the STH i would make you an offer... oh well good luck with the sale and a free bump for ya!

would you trade for an AR 15 with a 20" long barrel, .936" diameter target barrel full floater with leupold scope? its a DPMS lower with custom Machined upper. i even have a spare upper with the carry handle with no barrel and other parts.

its worth more than your asking price. pm me.

thanks!

the only difference is the lift arc instead of high freq start. in my opinion is better cuz you dont arc out on your stuff. i weld for a living and cant tell how much stuff i arc'd out on cuz of high freq. its a great deal on this setup, but to each his own

c_note · 08-18-2010, 06:02 AM

can it be converted to HF?

speedmetal75 · 08-18-2010, 10:15 AM

The techs at miller said it can be converted. It's lift arc start which means you have to touch the tungsten to the workpiece then lift up and it starts the arc. It's designed to prevent arcing out on part all milller inverter machine offer this option. It's not like the old school scarch start

Brad · 08-18-2010, 04:54 PM

Why lift arc if it has a pedal?? Or is that just an option available if you arent able to use the pedal? I know the Miller Dynasty's we have you can do both

speedmetal75 · 08-18-2010, 08:15 PM

The pedal is for amprage Control. The bottom line is the machine welds awesome and is brand new and it's for sale for a good price. If I need to weld some razor blades together to demo on how great it Is I will to get it sold.

speedmetal75 · 08-19-2010, 03:18 PM

price reduced and Im willing to trade for something cool.

JolietJames · 08-24-2010, 09:43 AM

Please define something cool. Are you in the market for something? Tires, tools, guns, pool cues... what's cool to you?

How thick of material can this thing weld?

guns, tubing bender, hot-rod or motorcyle stuff of that nature. the machine will weld 1/4" easy and 1/2" with a preheat. anybody close by is welcome to come look.

c_note · 08-24-2010, 08:48 PM

i also have a tube bender thats made of 7075 t651 aluminum and titanium pins. the smallest arm is .750" thick. id trade for the bender instead of the rifle if interested. it accepts pro-tools dies but does not come with dies. let me know.
