New Tig machine recomendation

[Mike W]

I was asked to select a new Tig machine at work. I have only used a high freq machine. It will be used mainly on 1/16 to 1/8" aluminum for repair work.

I was told to get what I think I need plus 50% more. Any advice would be appreciated. Should I get a water cooled torch or both air and water? Thanks.

Well, you need a Miller Dynasty 200 DX. Add 50% and that gets you a Dynasty 300DX.

Watercooling will get you a cooler, smaller torch for about $500 more.

I have to agree with Bill. We have syncrowave 250, 300 and 500s, aerowaves, and you just can't beat that Dynasty 300.

Thanks for the input.
