I did some trading and finally got the Millermatic 252 I have been wanting. It is brand new and never been used. Even though I cannot afford to get it up and running right now I am at least a big step closer to having the proper tools for the projects I have lined up.

Very nice!

Is it a bare bones unit? needing leads, gas bottle, regulator etc etc??

Regardless, thats a nice machine.

I'll tell you this, my Lincoln SP175plus does almost ANYTHING I ask her to do.....

All I need is a TIG.

Does that machine do AC/DC - Tig/Arc/Mig etc etc or what are it's functions??

NOTHING beats a good welder except good skills. My welder saves my arse every time :D

Still need that Tig though :D :lol:

A deuce is either a sh*t, a turd, a crap, etc (as in "dropping a deuce")

Or it's a military two-ton truck. Usually uses Rockwell 2-ton axles.

I tried to trade the first one, but no one wanted it. So I turned to the truck.

Ha, should have posted it in the "Alternative Lifestyle" section of Craigslist. Maybe you would gotten a buyer. :naughty:

I am afraid to go there and see what they have posted. I might catch something just by reading that stuff.
