Bodger's Paradise: June 2013
http://bodgersparadise.blogspot.com/2013_06_01_archive.html
Trying to help those who have helped me. showing a few repair jobs from my shed and conceptual ideas from my head. Monday, 10 June 2013. The SIP migmate series of welders are/were an affordable mig but they suffered from a terrible wire feed. A friend of mine owns one and as I was bored and he wasn't using it he brought it over for some lookin. There are a few documented mods that they are treated to as can be found on mig-welding.co.uk forum mig-welding.co.uk/forum. Lifted from mig-welding.co.uk. Refuse...

Bodger's Paradise: unimig wire feeder failure
http://bodgersparadise.blogspot.com/2015/06/unimig-wire-feeder-failure.html
Trying to help those who have helped me. showing a few repair jobs from my shed and conceptual ideas from my head. Monday, 22 June 2015. Unimig wire feeder failure. A friend of mine has been looking for a mig for a while now. Like the rest of us, he's on a tight budget. All the bargains were getting snapped up before he could get a look in. Then one day they re clearing out some storage that's been sitting a while and on a pallet sits a unimig 175 solid state mig/ stick welder. The torch trigger now acti...

Trying to help those who have helped me. showing a few repair jobs from my shed and conceptual ideas from my head. Thursday, 28 March 2013. EVERY single welding workshop has a lead like this. Go and look. Blackened and horrible. But it still works so why fix it? Volt drop, that's why. The damage on the contact points are creating a high resistance and dropping your voltage at the weld. Welding is a Low-Voltage exercise anyway so dropping a couple of volts will affect your weld quality. Refuse to obey "do...

Trying to help those who have helped me. showing a few repair jobs from my shed and conceptual ideas from my head. Wednesday, 18 April 2012. Cigweld Transmig 130 twin- Repair. I picked this mig up for a song but was really after the other trinkets it came with. Previous owner said it simply "stopped" and needed a new "card.". This is the burned component that fell off the card. I googled about and found the AUD90 (! Most of the smaller "hobby" migs are very similar inside. The resister is a different...
