Reply:love my 252. only thing i didn't like about it was the m25 gun. it's on the shelf in a box after about 1 hr use to decide i didn't care for the stiffness. put a radnor/tweco 250 pro on it and haven't looked back.225NT bobcatAEAD200LEScott 125mm175, mm252 w 30A, PT225mm211, TA 181iHyper Therm 380, cut master 529100X & XX, Digital Elite6 Victor setssmith little torch, meco midget kalamazoo band sawsteel max saw evoulution circular saw

o you guys have the 30A spool gun? Looking at welding aluminum, and there is a used setup with spool gun near me. Not cheap, but likely fairly priced.

oes the 252 have Pulse? Wondering how important of a feature it is for welding aluminum, likely no thinner than 1/8"?
Reply:the 252 doesn't have pulse. never tried less than 1/8" aluminum with the spool gun.... if it's that thin i use the tig or O/A weld it.Last edited by jbmprods; 09-19-2011 at 05:53 PM.225NT bobcatAEAD200LEScott 125mm175, mm252 w 30A, PT225mm211, TA 181iHyper Therm 380, cut master 529100X & XX, Digital Elite6 Victor setssmith little torch, meco midget kalamazoo band sawsteel max saw evoulution circular saw
