Besides, it's pretty much free to me, 500# of scrap copper I've demo'd over the past 9 months is paying for it. ****, that and overtime paid have paid for errything on the Jeep.

Same goes for Miller over other brands, I've used various machines (predominantly Lincoln) at work and the Miller's are always better in every way.
