I'm just about to take the plunge to buy a Miller Syncrowave 180 SD TIG
Welder.
This particular welder appeals to me as I'd like to be able to weld just about
any kind of metal, and I'm not concerned about speed as it would be only
for hobby type work. Am I on the right track? Also, the best price I can
find is about $1460 dollars on Ebay, that's doable but almost out of my
reach. Is that really the best price or can I do better? Seems too that
for about $100 you can get a TigRunner kit, but that really only seems to be
a cart for it. I figure my first project should be a cart. So, I'm thinking
I'll build my own. Last question, I have 200 AMP main service in my home.
Am planning to install a 60 AMP 220V breaker to my garage, will this do the
trick?

Thanks in advance, I'm sure that these are all "run of the mill" questions
that
have been answered before!


That is a fair price and it is a good machine.
The 60 amp breaker should be fine.

If you plan on doing a lot of aluminum you should consider adding a
water cooled torch later.
