Does anyone have first hand experience of these 3-in-1 units? Stick, tig and plasma in one package?
So far I've not tried to use it in any function as I'm having problems with the tig torch head and I prefer to be able to try out all of them in one session.
No matter what combination of collet, collet holder and back cap I employ, the back cap doesn't bear on the collet - with one exception. There's a stubby holder with collet that grips the tungsten, but there isn't a cup to match it!
I have since bought a raft of WP17 collets, holders, gas lenses, ordinary cups, pyrex cups and none of them are any better ... if not worse!
I have a second WP9 torch, but the gas/power connector doesn't match the fitting on the box.
Any help/advice would be most gratefully received.
