Hi Guys

Just be careful when buying any welding gear direct from...

Hi there

Great idea to get a respirator helmet, it will be the best investment you could make. I assume that you will be using the respirator for industrial use. The only makes I have come...

Hi Silas,

Did you end up buying the saw?. Ive had a BS-7ds saw for a few months now and at this stage pretty happy. I tend to get longer out of the bimetal blades than the carbon. My first...

Took me a few hours to get it smooth.
Have been building sheep yards to learn through repetition, 30-40 welds per panel, done 25 panels this week.

It sounds as though you cant go wrong with WIA, i haven't found anybody yet that wouldn't buy one.
I made the decision today and bought the 255 goes great. All i have to do now is learn to...

Hi everyone I am upsizing the farm workshop to start light manufacturing and was considering a WIA 10mm (225A) or the 255 with remote wire feeder. Has anyone got one? or now about them? what about...
