Hello all , I have been thinking about the Everlast 250EX or the 256 plasma TIG combo unit.
After watching all the videos fro Jody's site welding tips and tricks and also speaking to Richard in sales and Mike a tech for the company I am selling my Miller Diversion 165 to get the 250EX model. Reason being is I need the 250 amps and the everlast has all of the control that I need for a TIG.
I have had a MIG 165 for years and finally went up to TIG Because I am doing some work for the marine industry so I wanted a TIG for better stack o dimes look for welding aluminum.BUT one other problem that I have had in the past with TIG is I can not use the foot pedal on a TIG because due to a car accident back in 80 I lost the use of my legs so stuck in a wheelchair I could not use the foot amp control. So I got the Diversion 165 but quickly got out because not a big enough machine.
So when I get my Diversion sold , or maybe sooner if I can find the money I am going to have a 250EX on its way..
Sorry for the Long intro but wanted to say hi to the group that hangs out around here and also thank Richard and Mike who I have already spoke to on the phone about getting set up ..
Also it might take a little more time learning for me because I will only be able to use the welder in 4T mode all of the time unless I can modify the torch to have a amp control like on the Diversion..But even on the Diversion once the amps where dialed in and set then I didnt need to control amps anyway..
Thanks
Gary
