Wife bought me Hobart 230 Ironman for birthday

[KRStone]

Very pleased with the gift this year.



I have been welding at home 8-10 years.



Got a big upgrade from the AC only stick machine and a flux core 110 v machine.



So, about that bumper i have been wanting to make, and some decent step boards for the sides, front end shackles, a breather hose tank to catch the oil vapors, hmmmmm what else?

Cool KRS, What a sweetheart of a wife you must have! I have found that a swift and gracious reward for such gifts, keep them coming... .

Congrats! I love my 230v wire feed.

I agree JJ. Because your Hobart will get lonely, you'll need to add a lathe, vertical mill, plasma, pan break, shear, bandsaw, tube bender, 40'x60' shop, vehicle lift... ... ... ... . You better reciprocate quickly.

Setting it up today, got the wire, argon mix, and tips and the other set of rollers.
