You sayin' my (ubiquitous) Lincoln 225 A buzz box is not heirloom quality!? </tongue in cheek>

The nicest arc I ever worked with was from a huge old 3 phase motor generator that Ag Mech had for their welding classes. That made a beauteous DC arc. (6010 forever!) I think they were WWII vintage. Instructor was a WWII Marine DI retread who always reminded me of Sgt. Carter on TV. 99% of the students hated him and didn't learn much. I respected the guy and learned a LOT. I ended the quarter submitting a project to Lincoln and won a Arc Welding Award from them.

I saw him maybe 20 years later at Midwest Old Threshers Reunion, and he seemed shocked that I remembered him. To Andy Anderson, Slainte“, Prost, or whatever trips your trigger.

It's the quality of welder that will ensure your great grandchildren will
have a welder that works..

I have one that was my dads from a little later of that era.. still works
like is was designed to .. In fact.. out welds all the newer welders I own
or have used.. the arc stability is much better, and duty cycle capacity
far better.. All it needs is electricity and it's ready to work...

Looks like it's been well cared for, from the pictures..
