Hi all

Surplus to my requirements is this CIGWeld Easywelder EC stick welder. It's rated to 140A so is good for welding up to 10mm, but can easily weld 1.6mm too (even thinner if you knw what you're doing, but I never welded anything thinner than that).

I now have a MIG and TIG (which also doubles as a Stick welder) so this one just sits on the shelf gathering dust.

The welder is about 15 years old, and has been used for light duty home fabrication (shelving, work benches etc). I haven't used it now for about 6 years, although I fired it up this morning to test it and it still works a treat.

These are a good portable welder (they were some of the first "caddy" style welders to hit the market around 20 years ago, and at the time were the ducks nuts. I remember the boilermakers at work raving about them). It's served me well, but I no longer have any use for it.

There are no accessories included (gloves, helmet etc) although I might be able to find the original welding mask that came with it. For the price of LCD auto darkening helmets these days, I wouldn't bother with the old school stuff anymore though.

Note there is some insulation damage to the earth lead, as shown in one of the photos. It's been taped up with black tape for a good 10 years, although I peeled the tape off it this morning to show the damage. Since it's on the earth lead, it's hardly likely to cause a hazard, even if left uncovered.

I'm too lazy to post specs for the welder, but I found the same model for sale on Gumtree (http://www.gumtree.c...r-ec/1010815735). Note that one is NOT mine - I've just posted the link in case someone wants more specs on the welder.

The welder has a 15A plug, and comes with the work piece / lead as shown in the pictures.

Looking for $50 for the welder - pick up only from the Gold Coast.

PM if you're interested.

    • Absolute f*cking nightmare. I had to take breaks constantly, and I was always pissed off when I got home. The line split in Italy on day 2 (we drove from the Netherlands), lol. Driving any narrow European town was... well, sh*t.   Appreciate it man. Here, I'll just drop a favourite from the load I took on Saturday.   I'll update here when things happen with the car, the thing is, with stock power and almost everything chassis-wise taken care of, there really are no problems. 268,000kms now and counting.  
    • Ah! I actually managed to snag a lightly used set.... that aren't so suitable for me right now. They don't work on a GTT without some cutting or creative heat moulding. I thought about reselling them myself cause I didn't want to murder them, but it looks like I'm probably going to attempt to murder them/melt them because I may as well. @GTSBoy @PranK can somebody close this thread?
    • Hey mate,  I have a set, one is slightly damaged but wont be noticable once installed.  Shoot me a message if your still after them 
    • I couldn't wait But, the black constant tension hose clamps were too thick and there wasn't enough clearance at the T/B and I couldn't get it to seat properly, so I had use a silver one there I also added some 3" silicone over the alloy bit that goes through to hole on the radiator support as it looked like it was sitting on the edge of the hole in the radiator support, I never noticed a rattle or anything, but there was a witness mark It is basicly done, and I can live with the silver hose clamp at the T/B, I will get a black clamp for the head vent though where it is attached to the bulkhead fitting  It never stops...LOL, only issue now with the shock tower brace is it slightly touches the under bonnet liner now, if I leave it it will either wear some paint off the brace where it touches, or damage the liner, so I removed the liner to see what I have to work with, with the liner removed I have about 20mm of clearance, but sadly the middle part of the underside of the bonnet is only dusted with paint and looks crap, so I cannot have that, but.... as I have a roll of Carbuilders premium under bonnet insulation in the garage laying around that is only 5.5mm thick (we were going to use it on the boys Patrol, but he crashed the front of it a few months and it was written off, hence why he now drives my old Honda Accord Euro), I'll use the OEM liner as a template and get the Carbuilders stuff fitted up to cover that dusted paint up
