No worries. Might just go for London gases for now for ease. Then reassess in the future
R-Tech machine arrived yesterday. Got the CK9 flex torch too and an auto darkening lid. They didn’t have some of the consumables in stock so I’ve only got some very narrow tungstens and a kg of 312 stainless rods
Will pick up some other sizes and materials in the coming weeks for practise

awesome! Thats exciting. What size filler/tungsten have you got? Its nice to have a mix of different sizes and alloys. I have a stash of 312/309/er70s2 in 1mm and 1.6mm that covers pretty much everything.

Just 1.0mm filler and I think only 1.0mm tungstens too as the 1.6 I was going to get was out of stock. I only got a handful of those though so I’ll pick up some 1.6 when they’ve got it back in

I got lanthanated tungsten. I read they’d work fine and I think they’re a bit less radioactive :)
