Spotted these today on fleabay, but could be worth a punt for those (Snowy + Friends) with 200+ amp machines.

Tempting, but it's way to far away for me.
That supply of large diameter rods would probably last for the rest of my life.

 

[madkayaker]

very tempting

 

[Drains]

Tempting if you've a load of inch plate to weld up. Otherwise, er, no. Worth plenty though, to the right person. Now that Paul's gone into the harbour bridge building business etc, shame he prefers Mig!

I would never use them ,multi run with 3.2mm would be enough for most diy needs,last time i used 4mm was at college,20 years ago.

You can tell by the use of single syllable words and gorilla-like grunts?

tempting, time was Id buy 5 and 6mm rods by the CWT.......

 

[Welderpaul]

Too many i wouldnt use. (Other than for bending in two and hanging cables/leads off)

 

[snowcat]

Or for chipping the flux off for poor fit ups

Useful if you're into hardfacing buckets and stuff. The 6mm are also useful for instant cruise control in your truck - just jam one between the bulkhead and the gas pedal when you're on the motorway.
