I just got tipsey and bought a 235A Portamig

[tedmagnum]

Dam all this left over Christmas booze....

I've only gone and impulse bought a 235 Portamig. £720 with a spool of wire.


I knew I had to do it.. I've just spent the last of my cash on a £600 garage electrical upgrade to accommodate a £650 NVQ L2 Welding course which I'm half way through.

Tell me I've bought the right machine..............

Especially if it works on eBay!

Ebay is also the reason a own a 16 foot canoe, an old English Long bow, more tools than hands to use them, 6 tents and a Renault Canoe Van..

Thanks mate. That's very very helpful of you.

Send me your address asap. The box might be ticking and smell a bit like weed killer. But don't worry, it's a DHL thing.

Yes, I have an EASB Compact 160 it works perfectly, but its nearly 25 years old and still works like new. I just thought you might like a tried and trusted machine, they do say "they don't build them they used too"....

I'II get my coat......

"...tried and trusted" or "tired and rusted"

No definitely "Tried and Trusted", I reckon it will out last me the build quality of older EASB's machines is amazing.
