@Ckallert I have a hobart 165i and i was able to change from wp17 to wp9. I took the cover off and I am pretty sure you can figure a way to make it work.

I strongly dislike the included torch.
I wonder how difficult it would be to install a weldcraft torch on it.
Anyone try it yet?

Great video Jody ... You should a review of the Eastwood tig 200 it's a 200amp ac/dc welder comes with a foot pedal hand control and 3year warranty for 850 ship

You go Jody. Not many would have the nerve to get into this type of comparison, but you did and I think it was well done, objective and un-biased. I really liked the disclaimer up front and you stuck to it. Hats off to you man... Now if the rest of the junk talkers would just put up or shut up. life would be good. Bob
I was just wondering what your settings were on the Everlast? Argon psi and amp settings? Going to buy this welder to do aluminum. I also notice that with the aluminum your tungsten has a pretty sharp point and I was always told to use a round end. Is the sharper end more accurate? controllable?

@Evanofthecosmos , I was using a #5 cup , 3/32" 2% lanthanated tungsten, about 15cfh of argon.
I usually taper electrodes a bit for aluminum. With most inverters, you can set the ac balance and or ac frequency to where the electrode stays somewhat tapered with only the very tip rounded. It lets you pinpoint the arc better than a ball....especially at low amperage on edges, and thin stuff. To get the thick aluminum to puddle hotter, I used argon helium mixed at around 50/50

@Ckallert you can change out the torch head, but I think you stuck with the body.
