The joy of DC stick

[JohnT]

until i bought my PP164 a month ago, the only welder I ever owned was a Linccoln AC225 buzz box.
Today I welded a rusty old bracket onto a wheel using the stick feature on the PP164.
WOW what a difference using DC instead of AC. It was actually fun.
Now I gotta go find some more broken junk to weld

John t,

I just bought a powerarc 200st and you are correct dc welding is the way to go.
I noticed your signature, Shalom do you know Hebrew ?

I did a little welding with mine today, all I can say is smooth. I hope mine we continue to give me years of service.
Thanks
