Those are all spot welds.

I thought so but wanted to make sure. I want one of those pulse tig welders so bad I can't hardly stand it. Keep up the amazing work.

Them lil boogers are EXPENSIVE! Around $8,000.oo U.S.D. for the one that is capable of welding any & ALL types of metals! There are cheaper options that will ONLY work on steel.

It looks more like $3,000 total to me, unless you're seeing some needed accessory I've missed, but I checked the website... it's about 2,500€ for the unit, magnifying shield, regulator, and shipping to the US. You should skip the regulator and buy one in the US, as I believe the bottle threads would be different.

It's slightly over 12kg (26,5 lbs), without battery and the ripper. I think they will add about 1kg.

They've came down in price. It's been a bit since I last looked at them!

I got everything painted, the cylinder is still missing the piston seals.
