This is basically a dream welder that "does everything". Comes with a
60M wire feed, torches, MIG guns, etc. It works from 3 phase and 1
phase (at a slightly reduced duty cycle).

Price offered to rec.crafts.metalworking participants is UNDISCLOSED,
but much less than what I expect to get elsewhere.

http://yabe.algebra.com/~ichudov/misc/ebay/Miller-Maxtron-450-CC-CV-Welder/

I am going to dicker around with this one and it will be gone
quickly. I will test it prior to shipping. (I have yet to bring it
home)

Is there some reason you aren't keeping this relatively compact
all-in-one for your home shop and selling off your less space efficient
separate units?

That's also a good possibility. I will pick it up shortly (maybe early
next week) and will find out. The only thing it is missing is AC TIG.

Just did some last night (messing with a non-working single phase
motor). I hope that it counts as metalworking.

Well, technically. I think the tail is wagging the dog. Last year this
time, you were building trailers and such. But it is all just a circle. A
vicious one, at that. As long as yer making a buck and having fun and no
children or small farm animals are permanently injured, it's okay.

Steve, it depends on how you look at this.

I made my trailer (over 2 years ago, rime flies) so that I can bring
stuff home that I buy at auctions. It is in the same line of activity.

I do not really do "metal art" or collect cars or things of this sort.

There has to be some purpose to having a home shop. To me, the purpose
is mostly so that I can buy, sell, and fix equipment, on small scale,
which is what I like to do.

Otherwise I would not really need to have a shop and at most would
need a screwdriver and adjustable wrench and pliers, buying everything
retail and hiring handymen. Life would be rather boring.

I look at it like this: if a guy can run 7018 rod, everything else is a
piece of cake. You found what makes you happy. Some people search all
their lives and never find that. You're a lucky man.

Thanks. I like what I do and it is metal related, letting me embark on
various interesting projects without cost. (other than time). I would
say there can be worse things.
