Anyone have a CK Worldwide Micro Tig Torch?

admin

I do, and it looks like it rocks!  I'm sure one day I'll find a good use for it!    All of this is PaulP's fault up north @ HTP for giving me such good deals on all this stuff, it's like he's practically pointing a gun to my head and making me buy it!    Thanks Paul, that's what friends are for!  I now owe you a 20hr oak smoked brisket, a 12-pack of beer, and hot latina escort lady for all the $$ you've saved me on gear.   1st on WeldingWeb to have a scrolling sig!

Reply:Actually, since it's water cooled, it's rated 140A 100% duty cycle.  So you could actually weld a bunch of different stuff.  Obviously the cup size makes it impractical for a lot of things, but for everything else that resides in a tight-fit, I'm sure it could come in handy. 1st on WeldingWeb to have a scrolling sig!

Reply:Originally Posted by Oscar Hence why I'm picking up all the gear I need now at today's prices vs 5 years from now when it has gone up 140% of what it costs today.
Reply:Originally Posted by SquirmyPugWhat happens if you find out in 5 years you STILL don't need it? Then that 140% doesn't matter and it was a waste of money that you could have used on something you need Just to be safe, and make sure it wasn't a waste.. You should send it over to me, I will find a use for it
Reply:You have to stay ahead of inflation? Be serious, everyone knows teacher salaries will be up 140% in 5 years so technically it will be a wash........ok....I may have used a whole can of sarcasm right there -lol Dave J.Beware of false knowledge; it is more dangerous than ignorance. ~George Bernard Shaw~ Syncro 350Invertec v250-sThermal Arc 161 and 300MM210DialarcTried being normal once, didn't take....I think it was a Tuesday.

Reply:I don't have the CK version, but I do have the weldcraft torch of the same type. Its only use in the shop is welding up cracked cylinder heads for aircraft engines as it is about the only torch that will fit down the ports.
