Well, I have aquired some gloves, helmet, nozzle spray, contact tips, argon/CO2, and .30 wire.
I loaded the wire spool (2lb.) onto this spindle thing, and fed the wire through to the torch tip....so far so good.
Then I let go of the spool, and.....well there isn't any tensioning thingy on the spindle so you know what happened next! LOL
Well, I did manage to save most of the spool of wire.
I guess there is a part missing (from my free welder).
I am going to locate the missing parts, then I will be able to start practicing! I assume there is a tension dealy on all wire fed machines?
