Thanks Jim for your reply not ready to fully commit to anything just yet but I'll keep you in mind thanks palGreat machines, unfortunately they have shot up in price in recent years as at one point they represented amazing value for money.
I have a client with a 400 and a 500 amp multiprocess Pulse mig/AC/DC tig for sale if you’re interested? (Not looking to get involved in the sale but I’d happily put the two of you in contact) They are machines I service and calibrate annually so I can vouch for their condition, they are very tidy having come from a small shop owned by a guy who looks after his kit.
PM me if you want more information.
