Switching TIG torches

admin

I use a Wp-20f flex head Water-cooled torch to do most all of my work.  I'M doing a closing panel/wheel well interior side, where I can probably only reach it with a pencil-tip-type torch.  What do you guys do, buy seperate Dinse adapters (expensive)?, swap hoses?.  Seems like a pain, but gotta do it.ThanksDavid
Reply:Just my two cents but ....I would by another hose and Dinse connector.. Would drive me crazy changing the connector all the time.But I'm a typical Engineer/virgo type individual and have to have everything as perfect as possible.I'm sure you'll probably get a couple of "I wouldn't spend the money" answers too. In the end it's all up to you ... Life is good ..Your callWashman
Reply:Well, I agree with you.  However, cheap reasoning took hold, and remembered that I have an air-cooled WP-9F torch that I never use, and could just switch torch bodies.  For the total of 2 feet of welding I need to do doesn't make sense to buy hoses adapter and torch for short stretches of weld in a tight place with three hoses coming out.  ThanksDavid
