    Researching 1st AC/DC TIG Welder

    After months of research i just purchases a HTP invertig 221 and could not be more pleased . It welds aluminum like butter . I could not find a negative review of this machine and was all set to buy a TA 186 , very pleased with my choice http://www.usaweld.com/TIG-Welders-s/26.htm
