Raizer Posted February 8 Report Share Posted February 8 Downloaded an Everlast instruction manual, so much more detail than BOC give. 0 is 50/50 balance, so either -30 or 30 is 70% (I'm still reading it lol) I've been aiming for balled tungsten the whole time lol Edit: Between the Everlast instructions and the video @Transom posted I think I've got it figured it, -30 is 70% negative. it was about 30 where the tungsten was balling and splattering away so yeah that would have been 30% negative.

Raizer Posted February 9 Report Share Posted February 9 Think I'm getting it figured out again /\ 80Hz, 70/30ish (edit 80/20, -30 on the setting, 0 is 50/50 so -30 would be 80/20) , 120a, pulse 2Hz down to 80a. Filler rod from Bunnings kept giving bright green flashes and leaving the soot marks?? Same amperages and balance, 120Hz. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adoom Posted March 15 Report Share Posted March 15 Does anyone else have an Optrel panoramaxx helmet? I need some of the replacement front lenses. 5000.270. Mine are all burnt and stained. I might have a go polishing an old one... like plastic headlights. Looks like they will cost about $90(incl freight) for 5 from Proline Welding supplies. I guess $18 each doesn't sound so bad... for a molded bit of plastic. Is this pretty much how much they cost everywhere, or is there somewhere better to get them?

Adoom Posted March 15 Report Share Posted March 15 WD40 didn't do much. I gave it a polish with jif. Definitely an improvement, the staining is much reduced, but it's a little hazy still. Clearer than it was before, but not like new. Still want to get some new ones. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Raizer Posted May 31 Popular Post Report Share Posted May 31 Somewhat related to welder buying... For the last few years my welding "table" was a small piece of 12mm plate with a section of angle zapped on the back by a seagull with metallic diarrhea, the angle got clamped in my vice to give a surface as well as tie up my vice to prevent it being used for anything else etc. Well that's changed! Managed to sell my old DC TIG and my last .22lr for more or less the exact amount needed for the table, got to Machinery house on Friday and it turns out they have a sale starting today so they gave us the sale price and then a further $50 off with their "mates club" deal. It's no certiflat but fuck I am over the moon with it!! Modded some M16 bolts in the lathe, welded on Bunnings F clamps *Don't look too close, I'm still figuring out MIG* Oh and much less related, ol' @Geophy had a mate selling a drill press last month and it's found it's way to my shed too. 9 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
