what you have just described is bang on the arc seems to stray when i first start off then steadies itself, the foot pedal seems to be working fine definitely changes the amps the harder i push, feel a bit happier now you have said that :)

would i need to do this to use the 220v pump i have or for a new 110v pump
i keep thinking of transformer as in big transformers i use for 110v tools which plug into 220v
sorry to sound such a thicko but im not the best with electrics
sheps
in a good way or bad m8, i don't get it on dc only ac, I'm hoping to have another go tomorrow, any ideas why the arc was going round in a circle
by this i mean arcing up and down but going around
sheps
might be a bit to ask really SI, to be honest my dad lives in Washington and Miami, and my brother lives in California, i wouldn't like to ring and ask them
mainly because i would be on the phone for hours, and i just don't like to put people out
one idea i keep thinking about is weather i...
im with you paul, i have been looking on flea bay for a milling machine also a lathe, the trouble is i haven't got a clue how to use them properly
fun to learn though, cant say i would go for a Chinese one, nothing against Chinese, i love a good take away

don't really do tablets SI, to cut a long story short when i had the heart attack i was on the motorway and got rushed to a hospital in bristol called French hay around 8.30 pm, i felt a lot better so discharged myself at 1 am
much to a doctors dislike
my attitude if i was on my way out i...
great believer you have to speculate to accumulate SI
if i only ever brought the stuff for the work i had coming in i would still have grands in the back pocket
i tend to look at it if you haven't got it you cant do the job, i brought an 8 ft pillar drill when i kitted out my unit, a m8...
i know m8 im only 37 now, i had angina since i was 28 and had a heart attack on the motor way at 33

i think im just to impatient, i thought i did give it a good going over with a flap disk
ive got some acetone so i will give that a try, any ideas on the electric shock bit, im not to keen on it really, i know its not to bad but i had a heart attack at 33 so it always gets me a bit worried...
hi shenion m8
tomorrow i will post some pics of the airco
it does have a 110volt outlet on the front of the machine which the cooler is pluged into, it looks like a usa plug but is three pin instead of two ie: the two wide flats plus a third round pin
its filthy inside, but seems in...
allright m8 i will give that a go tomorrow
still cant understand why the arc was going round like a merry go round making a rat a tat noise :confused:
sheps
yes Si
sorry m8 should of been clearer, the airco helliwelder came with one i think in transit i pulled a wire from the motor
when i had the welder running i did notice that the cooler wasn't running
made a passing comment to a m8 about it he said he says back, i think they run off a...
not sure if this is the right place to ask
i have a 110 volt cooler and the motor has gone tits up, i was thinking of having it rewound but i have noticed a drip coming from the pump and i believe the seals aren't changeable
so it might be best to get hold of a new unit, i have had a...
by animal you mean pig :laughing:

they looked a bit naff so i...
