[Slick]

Hello,
I received my unit after a agonizing month long wait! I've been playing with it a bit using 2T and 4T, and I am thrilled with it so far, it has more capabilities then I have skill! Cant wait to try out the other functions.

I've been on the phone with Mike about a problem with a couple of loose knobs (thanks UPS!) I'll be calling again when I get a chance to discuss what else to look for that UPS might have had a hand in! If you want I can make a short tutorial for you on how to fix the loose knobs!

I also spoke to Alex about what was missing from the bottom of the box being blown out. Hopefully those items arrive soon! Keep me posted when you guys get some stickers, so I can cover up UPS's handy work.

If its any consolation, I ordered something off of ebay that came from far far away, and it looked like UPS drove over the box.

Also a suggestion, as I have the machine covered with a old pillow case, and a trash bag to keep the dust off of it. I am sure you would sell a ton of covers to keep these things green!

Thanks again guys, I can't wait to put some miles on this thing, and gain some skill!

Glad to hear you got your welder slick, I know you will have fun with it, Mine has been working perfect just taking my time getting used to all of the functions on it. Still have not tried the plasma or stick yet but if it works anything like the TIG then no problems here..

I used the cutter with the dryer and regulator on my smaller compressor, and it cut through everything like butter!

I'm going to buy some tig parts locally, and try out the tig with the torch and button, but my pedal along with other things were MIA when the machine arrived. (thank you UPS!)

When I was at harbor freight I saw a stick clamp that I am use to seeing on stick welders. It was rated at 400 amps, and on clearance for $5 so I picked it up along with some 6011 rod so I'll try the stick out soon!
