i know its not of my zuk,but still thought id post up a few pics.

My $900 helped go towards a 250 amp magmate mig.Thanks kev.i decided a few years ago it would be good to do a quarter chop on my lux tub then hated it and built the tray.i missed how useable the tub and canopy were so have since fitted it and today i knocked up a rear bar to protect the corners and have a haymon reese style setup for recovering also.It was the first job for the new mig and it worked well.

The bar cost just over $100 to build is made up of 90mm flat,50mm flat,75mm rhs and 65mm rhs,6x1/2" unc 8.8 bolts.The pipe is 2" pipe.Should do the job just nice i hope

wot did the mig end up setting you back?

[appsie]

the magmate pro 250 is a inverter mig.they are from BOC

i paid 1285 for the mig with a set of small riggers gloves,a large set of welding gloves and a 15 kg roll of 0.9 wire and a few extra spare tips etc so very very happy with that.A G size bottle of gas and years rental was $300ish tho..I was worried with it not being a well known brand but from what ive done so far its the shiznit

that's pretty good. I wonder if I can buy it through our work account and pay it back through salary sacrifice. We get a very good discount at BOC through work (think it's about 30%), so will be worth enquiring.
