Freddy,

I see the stick welding video working here. I think changing the settings on youtube worked. Your camera as good as you described.

thats because I set it public again. I was wondering why the view count on there didn't go up since yesterday. I put that video as an annotated link on my Harbor Freight video and that one had 400 views yesterday and I was wondering why none of those people clicked over to this one. I looked at it and it was private again for some reason? Oh well. I'm going trade my old plasma cutter today for an argon bottle and hopefully I'll have the tig once ready soon.

I took my old regulator to homedepot because I could not wait another minute to try out the tig. They gave me some reducers and stuff like that and got me going. I hooked it up and yeaH. really easy smooth arc. great tig weld on my first try.(with this machine) I made a few and got so excited I ran inside to post this. I never thought I would ever get a tig machine with a foot-pedal. it works just as good as the expensive machines for steel as the millers we used at school years ago. I don't have video yet because the weather is bad and it's dark but I will probably try to upload something anyway, if not tomorrow. I'm going back in the garage now to go play with my awesome new toy.!!!! I give it the official freddy seal of approval.twothumbsup LOL I know that does not mean anything.

Cant wait to see the vid Freddy!! Made a visit to HF and picked up that ball pein hammer set WOW what a deal.

I have 4 sets of those. Lol. I'm in my garage right now trying to get the tig puddle to come out well on video. Its pretty tricky to film but easy to weld with this thing.

Here is the final review of the multiprocess machine. I really like the tig and the arc is super sweet. This is a good tig welder and stick welder and plasma cutter. twothumbsup

Good video! I hope that the fittings from HD are rated at 3000-4000 psi. Lower rated fittings could be a safty issue.
