Puddles,

Has your property washed away yet? For awhile there on Sunday it was coming down about as hard as it ever does here---and you get about half again as much as we do in Oly, don't you?

I had one of those Monkey Ward AC/DC buzz boxes once. It was their Powr-Kraft brand, made by Century, I think. The handbrake type clamp on the amperage selector lever wouldn't lock securely, and the welder would change settings during use. It was an interesting effect---once. I could make it work with a bar clamp vertically beside the lever and a pinch clamp to hold the setting. It was a slight inconvenience, but mostly it was embarassing. It looked like every other jury-rigged tool I keep running long after I should just give up and buy a new one.

Those are some beautiful beads with that 7018, especially run on AC with that welder. I ran some with a Lincoln 225-AC welder that one of the instructors brought to the college welding shop last year. They weren't as nice as yours, but they weren't bad. I also ran some Lincoln 6010 5P++++ with it. That didn't look good at all, but it proved to me that it was possible. About like stick welding aluminum---you just wouldn't do it if you had almost any other option.

Stay dry,

Stan

Today's Featured Article - Oliver 550 Purchaser Checklist - by Greg Sheppard. Pound for pound the 550 is better than anything I've seen. It has great power for its size and can really hunker down and lug. Classified as a 3-bottom plow depending on soil conditions. I personally don't think it can be beat for a utility tractor in the 40 HP range. They are extremely thrifty on fuel, at least my DSL is. Most drive train parts are fairly easy to get. Sheet metal is probably the hardest thing to ... [Read Article]
