What made you decide to sell the diversion?

[shiftdrift]

a friend wanted to learn to tig weld after i did a bunch of fab work for him and I wanted a new welder, so I sold it to him, still has a 4 year warranty on it. It worked great and I did a ton of good work with it, all my tig work in this thread is with the diversion. I just wanted something with pre and post flow adustability and pulse features. It's a great welder to learn with and do good work with. It will be more than enough for almost anything people do, I just have ventured into things that i'd rather have some features for.

Sweet man, you'll have to post up how the Everlast performs. I'm looking at a 250dx/water cooled setup possibly. Can get the whole thing for less than a dynasty 200, just the box.

[killer240]

Hey dudes, how much would you guys pay for a MM 140 Autoset? It only comes with the gun, no regulator or bottle, and it's a few years old.


Also, I tried to find some review for Thermal Dynamics dc inverter 460 3phase capable (tig/stick/mig), but I had no luck. Is it any good?

[shiftdrift]

That mig will be worth about 500 bucks. Its nice

If you guys don't mind me asking, who did you get the "Clevis Mount" that you used for that top bar that goes across?

[Chaluska]

nice welds. and that truck is nice, get the frame painted! just thought i'd drop this off in here, I built basically the entire thing, entire frame, all suspension setups, complete bed/tailgate/floorpans/trans tunnel, all brackets, did all body work and all paint work also. as well as the grill shell and plumbing. AND, got featured in a 6 page write up in diesel world for rocker panel/cab corner replacement. here is when it was still bare frame, these holes were a PITA to do, but looked great when done.

[godrifttoday]

^
Dude that is beautiful!!!!

I would love to build something like that! Can u have frame specs/dimensions? That is an ideal ride I would love to build !

[shiftdrift]

I don't have specs anymore man. Previous job, I left there as soon as I finished that car. Supposibly going to be in old skool rods. I'm sure I won't get recognition for building the damn thing.

[dawagarage]

slideways looks like its about time to increase the size of those front rotors. truck looks pretty good though i must say

[onlydrinkkoolaid]

that truck is nice man well done
