I'm looking to buy a gas lense kit, I've been looking on line but I'm a bit confused as to what to actually get and where to get it.
I currently have a wp17 and a wp26 torch but down the road I'll be buying a watercooled torch and cooler for my ali work.
I've looked at lots of kits available and they come with stuff I don't need, I only use 1.6mm and 2.4mm tungstens at the moment but most of the kits come with 1mm and 3.2mm collets which I don't need. So I want to just make up my own kit to suit my needs.
I have some titanium jobs to do so I want to be able to run some of the larger cup sizes aswell but I'm a bit confused as to what cups will fit what gas lense kits. The extra stick out that can be run with the big cups would be really handy for stuff like exhaust collectors where access can be difficult.
At the min I'm using a Weldcraft stubby lense which I'm really happy with. I plan on sticking with the stubby lenses as I like the nice compact profile.
I tried some of the ebay kits but wasn't really impressed with the quality so I would rather stay with the name brand stuff like ck.
So who buys what and where do you buy it?
Also if any traders want to pm me to discuss it thats fine.
TIA
