Title: Just What I Didn’t Need
Post by: chips and more on Jan 16, 2025, 04:19 PM
Found a Stryco blade welder this morning. Built like a tank and surprisingly VERY heavy! Don't have time to play with it. Probably get to it spring time. Already have a blade welder but hear the Stryco has unique features(s)? Will find out. Had to pay 200 bucks, geez. That's not like me, LOL.welder.

:) :D ;D :smiley_crocodile:  Neat find.  Price is do-able (swallowing hard) lol.  :smilie_tongue_updown: 
I'd be curious to learn what are the neat features when you start testing.  I don't have enough need to find such a unit but I've seen them work and I always thought it would be great to make my own.... once every three years? lol

Yeah, they are heavy.  The one to my Grob bandsaw is heavy, too.  Which reminds me, I need to get back to it and get it put back together.
