I need to buy a roll. Is any one brand better than another? Good place to buy online?
just go grab the lincoln stuff from home depot or lowes. If your machine can hold it, go ahead and get the 10 lb (or is it 8 lbs, i can't remember) roll, it will be alot cheaper in the long run
Does this mean you bought that little lincoln machine from the vansent catalogue?
naw I just picked up a little lincoln 100hd from craigslist. Gonna unload it as soon as I get a couple of little projects knocked out ;)
edit what lincoln machine from van sant?
The TSC stuff isn't bad.
ive read that even the hf stuff isn't bad. i used it fine and don't notice a difference between that and the stuff i just got from praxiar
Got mine from TSC. It works pretty good, especially since I rewired the welder for the right polarity.
TSC ****s you hard with no lube on the price though. I bought a 10 pound spool of .030 wire for more than a 33 pounder cost me from Brazos Valley Welding Supply.
oh, forgot about that.
Looks like Lowe's has the best price on 10lb rolls of .035 flux core. About $40, that's cheaper than anything I could find online and about $12 cheaper than home depot
yeah but that is about all you want to run in a 110 machine.
Plus you don't have to change tips or drive rolls to go back to solid wire
just don't forget to change your polarity
Not Eric :flipoff2: When he was using my welder to weld some plates to his frame he somehow managed to shove .035 wire through a .030 tip. Later on I couldn't figure out why the welder wouldn't feed worth a ****, so I pulled the spool out and found that. Even the roller was on the wrong setting
precision, biatch
was this before or after you had that turd parked at his house?
