Does anybody have any Air Liquide welder tech?

admin

I'm just getting into welding and have been scouring the web for a good deal on a used welder. I eventually came across an amazing deal for a monster welder and jumped in feet first, but I'm not 100% sure what I actually got. What I'm actually wondering is do Air Liquide make their own stuff, or is this a rebadged Miller/Lincoln, what is it?It's a sexy beast and looks right at home in my garage, but I may trade it for something smaller. there's no way I can use what this thing offers...Anyways, thoughts and info appreciated!
Reply:Did you pay more than $900 or less than $900...........?Lincoln SA200's... at least 15 - 20. They come and go. Growing partial to the "Short Hoods" in my old age. Last count on Short Hoods was 13 in possession.

Reply:Do not trade it for something smaller, you will kick yourself afterwards.If you need something smaller, buy one smaller, but keep this one.  If it's a "not enough room in the garage" type thing, build an addition.  You may not need the capabilities right now, but someday in the future, you will & you will be dang glad you have it.Good deal you got there.MarkI haven't always been a nurse........Craftsman 12"x36" LatheEnco G-30B MillHobart Handler 175Lincoln WeldandPower 225 AC/DC G-7 CV/CCAdd a Foot Pedal to a Harbor Freight Chicago Electric 165A DC TIG PapaLion's Gate Build

Reply:The race car will cost WAY more than you will get out of the machine and I think you got a good deal......I would keep it.From the parts list it appears like it came with a Binzel gun.
