Reply:I believe if the kid showed up with that shorthood on his truck, he might get a test; just because!
Reply:Any experienced hand will tell you that the real magic happens between the shoulder and the holder.Just about any of the old Lincs can be tuned to run well on the ROW.Most ppl prefer round barrel machines, but the aluminum ones can do the job just fine too.I'm odd man out tho, just give me a Vantage 500 and I won't complain Expert Garage Hack....https://www.facebook.com/steven.webber.948

Reply:Originally Posted by CEPThey didn’t come with hour meters, so no way to tell how many hours on them. In your neck of the woods, SA-200s sell very high. Here in the North West they just about give them away. I paid $200.00 for this one.
Reply:I guarantee it didn't look like that when he bought it! That thing looks like it just came off the factory floor!Probably run you quite a bit more than $6k, too....Last edited by TimmyTIG; 01-06-2016 at 08:42 PM.

Reply:Originally Posted by TimmyTIGI would give you $350 for that old thing right now!!! Cash money, too!You couldn't buy something like that down here for a penny less than $12,000.
Reply:I don't even think you could find one like that if you tried.
Reply:I never have welded with one of those old shorthoods, I sure would like to give it a go on some downhill 6010, sometime.
