Looks like I am at 137 posts right now. Couple projects in the plan so should be another fun contest but may not be able to list certain equipment

157 for me. If work and junk doesn't get in the way I'm in.

Wow another contest all ready? You guys rock! 50 post should be a breeze. I'll set this one out since I got the last one. Good luck to everyone.

Guess we have to state our current amount of posts when the contest came out? That's 161 for me! so off to 211 to qualify! Good luck to all....

Blah.

Not enough knobs on it for me.

Oh but the POWER should compensate nicely for the lack of knobs.

To bad it doesn't have Pilot arc, that would be nice for CNC.

Still a really nice machine and I will definitely try to win it

Oh and I will need 373 posts for the contest, shouldn't be a problem.

Eric,
I use the LP80 on my CNC and find the pilot arc is not needed. If you use a pilot arc torch and ground the pilot arc wire to the ground cable the torch works great and starts off metal with no problem. You will want to make the torch tip run about .080 off the metal. Also start the pierce at about .125 and have it ramp down as it pierces.

You don't have to say your starting number of posts to enter. I started saying the number I need to get to when the contests first start. Other wise I forget where I started and don't know if I am on pace to get enough posts. 50 posts should be easy enough if I don't get to busy. I haven't had much time to weld the past few months.

I just spent $200.00 on propane for heating my garage. I gotta get going on the waste oil heater.
