do you have 220 wired? and what kind of connection is it?



that's the one i have on my extension cord, depending on how far the welder needs to reach from the wall plug

4/22/2006 3:40:15 PM

ha crap. i had that type of plug and just replaced it w/ the newer 220 kind w/ ground a few months ago. i could swap it back though.. only takes a few minutes. hrmm. is there an adapter?

and its about 6 ft inside the door to the garage. how long is the extension?

edit: mine does NOT have the center hole in the outlet. does your plug use that hole?

no, my plug doesn't use that hole. i think on the welder's plug it has the newer ground type plug ur talkin about. and the welder cord is like 5-7 feet and the leads on the welder gun and ground are ~10 ft. so it'd prolly work.

i am still running flux core though, if that matters to you.

it doesnt have to be pretty at all. just solid

4/22/2006 4:00:53 PM

oh it'll be solid.

xvang, if you want me to weld ur exhaust stuff up, i'm gonna do dannydigtl's sway bar stuff today.

4/22/2006 5:06:39 PM

xvang last chance man i'm rollin out. i guess pm danny if u wanna come.

if you need a welding job done, hit up a muffler shop. There's a welding/machine shop near the NC surplus near Chapel Hill Rd.

done and done and she's rolling like a champ.

thanks, jeepman

4/23/2006 12:49:38 AM

Sorry guys, I was hoping to get the weld job by noon yesterday because I was limited on time... guess I should have asked weeks in advance

So, at the last minute, I decided to run over to Tires & Parts in Raleigh and buy me some Thermo Tec exhaust wrap instead of welding on my heat shields.

Appreciate the help guys, thanks anyways

4/24/2006 10:36:36 PM

ugh, i already apologized, goodness gracious, you've used my shit w/o asking b4.

4/24/2006 10:41:40 PM

hahaha....never taken it anywhere though, and it doesn't cost over a grand. it's cool man, i am just messing with you, just ask next time...pretty please

4/24/2006 11:14:28 PM

ur shit doesn't cost over a grand, there was one on craigslist for 475, and i will ask next time.

4/24/2006 11:17:19 PM

that's cool and i am not trying to continue this TWW arguement but craigslist isn't the official on price for everything. it's over, i don't care.

well aren't you just the resourceful one then. we could argue this forever, but whatever. you always have to be right so there, take it. i don't really give a shit. Either way...just ask. and since that is now established, this thread can go ahead and get buried.


oh don't forget to check my spelling
