I do not dispute any of what you've said but how many people run air in their roll bars and sliders? I'm pretty sure they didn't design them with air pressure safety in mind, yet I've never heard of any major failures due to them running them as tanks. That's more the point I was tying to make. Air ...

Very important to me is having adjustable wire feed control as you can set it for positonal work like overhead and vertical up etc..... If your mig dosent have variable wire speed your using a stick welder. Go as high an amp as you can afford the highr the amp the longer the cycle. 240 amp and you ...
