Default Re: Tig welder to purchase.

I have a Lincoln Square Wave 255 I bought it new in 1997 for about $2600 at the time. I added a water cooled Tweco gun about $175 a Lincoln foot pedal about $130 and a Lincoln water cooler ~$500 . I got this right before the inverter type welders took hold. I wish I had one of the inverter type because the SW255 is big and heavy not making it too portable.
This unit works very well. I mainly use it for welding Bronze together. Sometimes Aluminum and steel.
For my every day Aluminum welding, I have two Lincoln InverTec V-350 Pro with Python push pull mig guns. These get pretty pricey I think the last one I bought was around $8000 for the whole setup.

Here's the Tig machine that I have:

This is the one I should have bought but I didn't have enough $$ at the time.
The cooler and foot pedal on the top in the picture are the same as mine.
