[QUOTE="EatonEggbeater, post: 14625311, member: 8939"] Hi guys, I've decided it's time to learn about TIG welding. I already know gas/stick/MIG welding, and I'm setting up my shop. I've seen TIG being done and was really impressed with the precision that can be had (not to mention the facility it has with different metals) and I've decided to set up a TIG station. I've pretty much decided on an Everlast 210DV AC/DC welder as it offers pretty much everything a Miller Dynasty has for half the cost. I met with a welder friend on Saturday, and he said (as far as gasses go) pure Argon works for anything he welds. (got a problem with that; take it up with him, advice with that; I'm all 'ears') Bring on the "that chinese junk won't..." "Miller's better than all..." and the folks who will say "you get what you pay for..." but as I'm not spending their money; they're spending mine at that point. Anyone have any experience with Everlast welders? ([url]http://www.everlastgenerators.com/product/tig/powertig-210-ext[/url]) Said welder will cost $1800 where Miller starts (admittedly) about there with the Diversion 180, albeit W/O a bunch of features. The competing Miller (Dynasty, by features) is well over twice that. Also I need Argon tanks; if I buy them from HF, will Airgas fill them, or should I go through AG for the tanks as well? Be aware, I'll start as a hobbyist, so I don't want to rent tanks. I'm thinking (tell me I'm wrong) 2x 80 cubic feet tanks would last awhile (once I blow out a bunch learning). Appreciate your insight; thanks! Mike [/QUOTE]
