The speedglas parts are propitiatory and nothing like the tool shop ones. Last I looked the head band was around 100 bucks.
Fairly sure total tools stock speedglas, if not bring your mask to me and il take it to shop neàr work that does. Actualy speedglas are shit, il take it off your hands lol

Time is coming up fast for another get together :D

Next saturday 6th feb is the day, as per the title we will be looking at tig welding with HQ355 leading the way.

This is open to all PCM hacking members and their friends. It will be held in Bacchus Marsh, victoria at H&K Auto, start 10am till about 3pm, or longer if required.

I will have an ac/dc tig there for everyone to use, if you want to bring your own, then no problem. If you have your own helmet and gloves, please bring them with you.

There will be a bbq lunch provided.

So if your able to come, please let me know so as i can cater accordingly.

Looking forward to catching up, Gareth.

Be there with bells on mate.
I'll bring my TIG and gear too will hopefully get my Argon gas thru a new supplier who has just started down here - no bottle rental - outright purchase and only costs when you fill.
