Post by J&J » October 26th, 2011, 7:19 pm

I'm John Moore from J&J Welding LLC in Leesburg, VA. I'm so glad to have found this site. It appears to be just what we need. I'm just sorry I didn't find you all sooner.
Thanks for the call today Frank! I'm excited about working with you.

Welcome aboard. What kind of equipment are you using/building/dreaming of? What do you like to cook?

Thanks!
We have a Miller Trailblazer302 mounted on our service truck. Miller Extreme Wire Feeder w/Bernard Gun, Miller 30A Spool Gun, and a Miller Spectrum X-Treme 375 Plasma Cutter.
We want to get set up for TIG as there are a lot of vineyards and breweries nearby that need stainless work done. Do you guys have any suggestions for a good TIG setup that would run off the 302?

Expensive end: Miller Dynasty
Budget end: Miller HF 251 D1

Look around for used models can also save some coin.

There are other alternatives by piecing equipment to avoid high costs. But I've learned that its easier to buy the right stuff the first time. Rather than dicking around with issues that might arise.

Do you smoke often? Or just build?

Lets see after that I need the plasma cam table, a TB 302 with suitcase, not sure on the tig side, oh heck I guess I need a truck to put it all on too. LOL
