Hi folks,

The last two things that are on my list for my private/hobby shop are 1) a TIG welder and 2) a media blast cabinet.

I looked at a Miller Dynasty 200 DX (air cooled package), but as a hobbyist, the price had me .

My friend in the metal joining processes shop at defense where I used to work till I recently retired put me onto a few options with Everlast being one of them.

So I am considering a PowerTIG 250EX. I'm still in the "doing my homework" stage and what I buy will depend on a few factors offered by the company.

My TIG welding experience is zero, but I do have an oxy-acetylene setup in my shop and the reason for going TIG is I am used to adding a filler rod by hand, unlike MIG.

Welcome to the forum. From what you said I would say the 200 DX would meet your needs very easy . But you could not go wrong with the 250 EX either. You will need a water cooler or buy an air cooled torch if you go with the 250EX.

I'll probably be under 150A most of the time, but I'd like the extra margin of the 250EX.
