Look what I got for $625 tonight

[engnerdan]

Lincoln Idealarc 250/250 welder. 15' TIG torch lead, stinger lead, GROUND lead and foot control. Plenty of extra cups and collets plus a couple tungstens. She works great, very powerful. 208-220-240-480 single phase.


I kind of feel bad for spending the money but I have already been told it is sold if I ever want to get rid of it.


Now I think my shop is complete......

What does that thing retail for?? It has to be over a grand!! Good sheet man!!!

[1320stang]

Yup, you officially suck!!

Air cooled torch I take it?

[acmike]

good buy.

I have an Idealarc TIG300 that I wouldn't let go for less than $1k.

Great machines, you can't kill them.

[MXtras]

That is a fantastic price for what you got.

Do you really feel bad for spending the $? Really?

With the economy in shambles and oil/fuel rising daily; expect to see a lot more tools and equipment for sale that are not being used daily.

Gas and food on the table take priority on a fancy tool/shop equipment just sitting around collecting dust...

[engnerdan]

No I don't feel so bad, but I am making a push to sell off everything that is sitting around much like jay50 said. I have already started posting parts and stuff on Craig list.

The torch is air cooled for now, but I am already trying to find a cheap water pump to build a cooler. Then I am going to buy a 25 foot torch, there are some good deals on eBay for new weldcraft torches. First priority is getting a gas cylinder and running some hose so I can remotely mount the cylinder.
