Default Request: Pictures of your work done by a syncrowave200 machine?

I am sorry if there is another thread already started pertaining to the same thing that I am asking. If so, please direct me to the thread and close this one. I have searched, and couldn't really find anything specific or good pics. If so, they people did not state the welder they used.

I think I have finally narrowed down after hours of searching and researching many different TIG's, and I just think for a financial standpoint at this point in time, this is gonna be the best machine for me for now. I KNOW that it all about the weldor and not the machine, but all I want to see is pics. Wether your a novice or pro, I just want to see some pics you have that you did with the syncrowave 200. SS and Aluminum really is all I am wanting to see.

I got to use this machine on some SS and got the pulse feature down pat pretty good and starting getting some ok looking beads, even though it didn't have a gas lense on the torch. Unfortunately the buddy that let me use the machine didn't have any aluminum scraps for me to try, so I wasn't able to see how weld it did aluminum.

Thanks in advance for ANY help and pictures!

Hahaha, thanks I guess. If only the people who welded with them in the other posts would say which welder they use most of the time, we'd be all good.

when you guys do mainfolds do you use filler rod or are you just fusing? Im a tig noob, my work has some nice machines, there tig is an older miller 480v 3 phase machine, i read the scale on it it said on the high setting max is like 325 amps, ive been kinda scared of it because it has alot of power i didnt want to burn through but in doing so my puddle is too cold, my filler rod was not really entering the puddle but the arc so i had some ***** surface welds with little penetration, when i weld without filler rod and fuse they come out very nice, i think im just not using enough heat to establish a nice pool that i can add too, instead of letting the arc melt it like solder

The machine is only fraction of the equation so i guess i really don't see what further pics are gonna help you w/. Got a 180, 200, and a 250 and they all weld the same quality just some run a bit hotter/colder @ the same settings then the other.

I know, it's all about the person welding and not the machine. I am not trying to learn how to weld, I just wanted to see the quality of aluminum welds this machine could do. I am probably gonna end up with the dynasty200dx anyways, but no one ever seems to do much aluminum with the syncrowave200. Or at least I can't find any pics. So I was just curious to see if anybody had any.

I think everyone should learn how to use their camera and the macro setting first!
Blurring pics suck ***!

Here's an example of an overhead pass I did a long time ago. I can't remember the specs. Ummm Mild steel... 1/4' plate.

SyncWave 200

I was just messing around on some scrap metal. I didn't have anything else to do at the time
