Welder

[Stroppymonkey]

Probably seems best to string up a 6mm flex for the next year or 2 and buy a £500 ish little welder like the links above. Got Welder Generators on my search settings and a Harrington Spitfire unit has popped up down in Cornwall. Someone has taken time to give it a coat of paint. Cant find much about them on tinterweb.

Harrington generators were local to me, don’t know what happened tbh they just seemed to suddenly close (maybe retired? )

I’ve a 200 amp petrol one mosa think it is, £500 out auction which does everything I ask of it plus big lincoln electric 10kva diesel with mig or stick on trailer which is a rare use but handy to have

The one in photo doesn't look massively overpriced based on that viewpoint.

That must be an early Harrington welder as it is AC the later Harringtons were DC.

I bought a 200A Mosa new in '02 with a Hobart hefty and remote control for £2300 .. (a) should've bloody kept it, (b) God knows what that package'd be now

used it a lot with and without the MIG unit ... was a bloody great little welder and man handle-able

Cheers - Fabricator friend says I will be best off with inverter mig on a long lead, and when I am back in workshop more likely to be used as well, so will persue that idea. Think Smooth Operator is from Luton? Bit of a Trek from the Cornish Borders

I'd agree.

 

[V8Druid]

I'd agree.

easiest option with a sufficiently heavy enough lead to avoid voltage drop ...... but a portable set is always handy for getting to where your power supply isn't.

@V8Druid What does BTL mean? I've been trying to work it out for months. It's not buy-to-let is it.

if you fancy it take a 110 & 240v 9" grinder and some rods (should in theory run a 5mm rod) and give it a test drive ... know now't about them but could well be a nice tool .. right motor on it too.
should also in theory be capable of running a Hobart hefty - just about
if it's OK I'd say it's a reasonable buy

if it was a 200A Mosa I'd've already arrived for it ....... as said though, it looks a decent little set ... rail track approved so must be pretty decent thing

are you the proud owner ??

 

[kabin man]

are you the proud owner ??

no, mrs didnt like the colour...
or price...
It started as looking for a cheap ish generator and i fancied a bit extra..
Loads of annoying power cuts round these parts lately
