Reluctantly offering up my Hobart 300-S TIG welder due to no longer having three phase power.
It's an older transformer welder that I have been told is essentially three single phase units in a single body.
I am including the torch, stick holder, foot pedal, and cart but not my gas bottle or chiller.
Guy I had doing welding for me insist I should keep it as the newer welders are "Junk" in comparison.
It's going to be a while before I can have three-phase again and I need space so my loss can be your gain.
800+ Lb., so you want to be somewhat local to me.
It is on a wheeled cart and has a alift-eye.
I am now in Yerington NV, not far from Reno/Carson City.

$400.00 price is just on the forum, higher at CL.

I don't know if there might be a problem with a welder, but you can run a three phase motor by using a second, larger motor as a rotary convertor. My tire balancer is three phase; I spin a surplus three phase motor up with a rope before applying plain old 220 and the tire machine runs just fine.

Store-bought rotary convertors don't have to be spun up by hand, but they cost a bit more...

Problem is, I only have 30 Amp service but the Hobart should have at least 70 and really wants 100. :shock:

Ok, I REALLY need to make space!
Price drop to only $400.00
Foot pedal alone is worth $250.00.
