Dell mentioned that the cost did not bother him. For me, cost is a
huge issue. I don't weld all the time, and once the fuselage was done
the welding dropped off to a bit here and there, maybe once every four
to five months, if that. So having a $1300 rig sitting in the shop
that wasn't being used doesn't make sense to me when the Oxy/Acet
torch welds tubing just fine. Remember, before there was TIG, ALL
fuselages were built using the torch, and none of them pulled apart.

That's not totally accurate, since the cost of the unit was definitely
an issue. If all I were going to do with it was weld together one
fuselage, I wouldn't have wanted the TIG unit.

Sorry Dell, didn't mean to imply anything. Should have said that I'm
speaking only for myself. So it's very accurate for me. :-)
