Reply:The Miller Spoolmatic 2 with WC 3 control is specifically for CC machines. Can't tell you how well it'll work from any personal experience, but it's designed for it.Expert Garage Hack....https://www.facebook.com/steven.webber.948

Reply:My Weldanpower does have CV so it might be better for the Spool Gun over the SA200.I am looking for the best way to do some aluminum in the field.For non critical work I use the Aluminum Stick Rods and they make it easy, but if it needs to be of better quality I tack the parts with the stick rods and take it back to the shop to TIG weld.
