I have chance at buying a Miller 330A/SP welder. It has a water cooled tig torch, foot pedal,water cooler,and high frequency. I want to use it for mainly tig welding aluminum and steel in my home shop. The current owner has just used it for stick welding and doesn't know how to tig weld. I have alot of tig experience and he has offered to let me try it in tig mode. I know this is an old welder and it will draw alot of amps, but for my home shop I think I can deal with it. Is there anything I should check or watch out for on this welder. Does anyone own one of these or have any experience with this machine? I see alot of these welders around. I know it is prehistoric, but it is about an
1/8 the price of a 250amp new machine. Yes it is single phase and it is 220 voltage so I know I can run it in my shop. Any comment or tips will be appreciated. Thank You- posted
