Single shade lid, ouchie, thats gotta be fun, hopefully you are learning on some thick stuff, I got the miller elite with it, supposed to be good down to something like 5 or 10A on tig, its pretty nice, worth every penny.

ROFL @ doors shut for rigidity
Did a little reading and it sounds like the Diversion is the Econotig replacement. I think this one doesn't go down as far, though, and is larger. Saw a synchro at CFP, and it was enourmous!

Learning, first thing I did was stuck the electrode. Instictively I pulled back on the torch which pulled the material off the vice I was grounded to. Foot still in the pedal. POW!

16ga stainless IC pipes turned out nice. Too bad I only helped cut them.
