[TheForge] TIG opinions, please

[Martin Paietta]

Take a look at the Thermal Arc 185. It is a small inverter box that has
worked great for me. I paid $1650 for it. To find the same features on the
Miller machines you have to get the dynasty 300. I know four people that I
highly respect for their skills in welding who have bought these machines. I
have been using it a lot and have not been unhappy with the machine. 

Cheers
Martin

I'm looking for a small tig welder that will hopefully produce neater welds
than the mig I currently have in 'nice' work - you can't always reach to
grind off the mig fillets!

Does anyone have an opinion on the Butters 160 DC?

I know it won't do aluminium, but I don't forge aluminium!

Cheers,

Rich.
