    Enjoyed testing this multi process welder with Chuck. We don't weld very often in our home shops, so you may get a good laugh at our skill level. It was a fun day testing this machine, hope you like the review.
    All The Best....Dean

    Great review guys. I have a SSimder welder myself and I have only used it one time on stick. So this is sort of a tutorial for me. Thanks for the video keep on keeping on.

    hey great video guys. I have my own welder that ive become accustomed to which is a AHP alpha tig 200x and it only has stick and tig but the amperages were similar to what you guys were using so great job on that. Tig is one of the hardest to learn so well done

    Thanks for this great video (along with your others). Im days or a few weeks at most from pulling the trigger on my first multi-process welder, and this unit along with your video has moved itself into the lead contender. I'm a little worried about parts availability in the short one year and so need to think it over a bit, but this is looking like the way, just hope it doesn't prove to be disposable. Thanks again.

    I use flux core 99% of the time, cause the argon mix here break my piggy bank, 😞, Did learn a few yrs back froom Jody over 2 welding tips & trick's that the wheel tension must not be too tight that it crushes and breaks the flux as it feeds through the wheel. Also having the negtive cable to DPEN for flux core a must. Hope this tip helps in the future, did for me, Bear.

    There was no mention one welding aluminum if you were on AC or DC I was under the impression you needed AC for aluminum

      @outsidescrewball  6 місяців тому

      thanks for viewing and your question, the spool gun welding was on DC, this machine does not have AC

    Thank you for the in depth video! There's very little out there, and while I'm very interested in this machine, I am a little worried based on some of the reviews on the previous machine, but your review seems glowing. I guess seeing it in action for long periods of time would tell us a lot more about the longevity of the machine and ability to keep outputting well under heavy use, but your initial review looks promising!
    In the description, SSimder says you can only MIG aluminum, not TIG, but clearly you guys did TIG, and it seems great. How thick of aluminum do you think you could weld on 220 vs 110 with the tig and spool gun?

    • @outsidescrewball
      @outsidescrewball  6 місяців тому +1

      thanks for viewing and I understand your concerns, please note that we DID NOT tig aluminum, we used the spool gun to weld the aluminum, the aluminum we did with the spool gun was 1/4"...

    When I set the machine the the foot pedal setting, the amperage is stuck at 140 if I try to move it down it goes back up to 140? watching your video the numbers were moving mine don't am I missing something?

      Yes just the aluminum, I was surprised at how easy it was to get the feel for it. It wouldn't take long to start running some nice beads.

      There's no guide at all its all trial and error but I just ran 11lbs through mine this week.. plasma works great pulse mig is neat unfortunately most of my welding so far has been over head plates to a unibody so it's been tricky but 19/110 seems like a good spot for my use
