Many older welding machines had a series of bridges under the back cover, (e.g. EMF Transarc 200) this allowed them to be set up for 240 V, 415 V or 480V - very common on many farms years ago, still...

It may pay to check with BOC about the regs. They have increased the cylinder pressures in recent years and sent memos to gas users at the time. While it may be a marketing ploy, I would check the...

I will be keen to know how you get on Cliff, you should be able to run this up on spray transfer for thicker metal in the downhand position. I have also been running a WIA 205S MIG for 14 years,...

Just a few lines about Sheraton Lathes, they were made in West Heidelberg Victoria (not far from the Sidchrome factory!) by George Sheraton and Co. I am lead to believe that some of their design was...
