HIf you dont mind my asking whats the retail on an 230 and a cooler? Im siding with a miller 280dx now though because its more amps at 230v but it is a lot more expensive than european offerings.

thanks Brad appreciate the tips. Don't know the retail as Jim did me a deal I was happy with. ; )Few little tips if you want them, this is my own personal opinion. Your bead looks lovely and with time you will gain the consistency between 'dips', I would personally bring the balance down a little to reduce the etching around the weld, especially since its nice new aluminium. I also like a small cup compared to others for aluminium, I use a number 5 almost exclusively and can really reduce the etching that way but still get a clean pool. Someone else may know better than me but im sure it has something to do with the ionisation of the argon gas and a smaller cup keeps a narrower stream of ionised gas.
