Hi guys and gals, well got a great deal for a used tig/mig welder unit from my buddy that i am using his workshop for my camaro work. He purchased a bunch of new tips and nozzles plus new liner for it, also he gave me a 50amp plug with box to get it set up. It does have a harris gas gauges for co2 and argon mixed gas. Just need to purchase gas bottle with it filled up. I thought it was a great deal for one hundred dollars, of course it is real dirty and needs major cleaning plus some paint. But my friend said the guy he bought it from showed him that it worked real good when he got it so i trust him. :clap: :dance: :obscene-drinkingcheers:

Hi guys and gals, been working hard cleaning up my snapon tig/mig welder. Sanded all down with 220 grit sand paper so the new red and black paint would bond real good. Major difference as you will see in the pics. :clap: :dance: :D

Heres a link, you can contact Snapon directly for a manual.
Their site has a YA212 combo model, probably superceded the one you have.

Hi guys and gals, well the welder only came with the mig setup features. I was told i need to purchase the tig conversion kit, plus tig torch etc. So i am checking into the prices to change it. :think: :D :obscene-drinkingcheers:
