Just wanted to show off my new toy. I will also use this thread as an information post regarding the machine and its functions. I would also like to see your setup if you don't mind posting pictures. Thanks guys and I can't wait to lay down a stack of dimes tonight. The welder is being wired tonight for 230v with a dryer plug.

The reason I got the Coolmate 4 is because a guy locally was selling it for 400 dollars. Its brand new with 0 hours so I figured I got a pretty damn good deal. I know its a bit big but I guarantee you I'll never have to worry about my torch getting hot. I still need to buy a torch and dinse adaptor but I haven't decided on which one. Not sure if I should get a CK torch or weldcraft. Anyone have a recommendation?

 

nice!

 

told ya to get the water cooled one

now i need to find enough $$ to get myself one. my torch was on fire today when i was welding some aluminum. damn it lol

 

Yeah I hadn't planned on it but after seeing that Coolmate 4 for $400.00 I couldn't pass it up, especially since its brand new. You can't find one cheaper than 690 new. Its a big mother F-er but its the best Coolmate miller has to offer. I just need a damn torch now but its all good I still got my weldcraft 17 air cooled torch to start with.

 

yeah thats the one i have, it gets hot. fast.

 

Very nice. You have pretty much the exact setup that I've wanted for a few years now.

 

Just got one of these bad boys...

 

Right on... I want to get one myself. How do you like it?

 

Dont know yet... heading to the shop after I get outa work to fire it up and play around with it.

 

i have only used Weldcraft but people say CK, Weldtec torches are same in quality with that being said check out the WP-225 http://www.arc-zone.com/index.php?ma...roducts_id=329 it comes with 2 interchangeable 70dergree torch heads one for 9/20 consumables and the other for 17/26 consumables if you decide to buy this torch ask to replace the way overkill 70degree 17/26 head with the 180degree 9/20 head so you have a pencil torch.

 

^ your killing me Rotary.... I just bought that Torch from Arc-Zone and a dedicated Tungsten Grinder... I'm WELL OVER 5,000 dollars into this but it was all well worth it.

 

its all good now you don't have anything to upgrade to ... unless you later need more amps? haha.

 

NICE!

 

for what I'm using it for I doubt I'll ever need to upgrade but who knows....
