My name is Kevin and I've been welding since my wife bought me a Lincoln AC only stick welder in 1973. Upgraded to a Century mig welder for a short time before selling it and buying a Miller Dial Arc HF in 1987. I've been tig welding ever since and am very pleased with the Miller. Wanting a smaller more portable tig welder for use at home, I ordered a PP256 on 6/25/10 and received it on 7/23/10. After building a tig cooler and some fittings to use the water cooled torch, I fired up the PP256 on 7/31/10. I had all the pieces cut for building a cart as my first test project and was anxious to find out how the PP256 would perform. It had some issues that required returning it and getting a functional unit. Reading all the reviews of the people that are very happy with their new welders makes me envious. Can't wait to get one that works.
