Victor Technologies bought Thermal Arc, Thermal Dynamics, Tweco (and I'm not sure what else). They rebranded the Thermal Arc Fabricator series welders as "Tweco" machines. Cyberweld is clearing out the Fabricator 181i. It's an inverter powered Mig/Tig/Stick welder (36 lbs). The tig is DC only and the parts are optional. It comes set up for Mig/Stick. I haven't had a chance to weld with mine yet, but I purchased one (as a portable stick machine if nothing else). I may get to it tonight. I figured I'd mention it in case anybody else was looking for a 180 amp Mig. It's 220v only, that's the only thing it's missing (no dual voltage). The Tweco torch looks to be a good quality piece and the unit looks decent. $599 until they are gone. Figured I'd share in case anybody else might want one. |

DC=ferrous, AC=Aluminum
I was such a lousy aluminum welder the few times I've tried that I've just outsourced any aluminum I've had to weld. In other words, this thing would do everything I need it to and have a lot more capacity for thick stuff than my current mig. It would take up a lot less space in the garage too compared to my current TIG. |
