[AT] portable welder

[Ralph Goff]

Charlie its an old Massey Harris alright and that classic Massey grille was 
very common here on the prairies back in the fifties and sixties. This 
welder is listed as a 350 which I'm guessing means 350 amps . If so that is 
a good sized welder as I have made do with an AC 180 amp welder all my 
farming days.
Have a closer look at the auction if you wish, (if this long link works) at

>From a distance in the thumbnail pic it looks pretty good but on closer 
viewing looks to be a pretty simple and crude piece of home-built machinery. 
Nothing fancy but good enough to get the job done.
This sale even has some horse equipment such as bob sleighs and cutter.
