Vendor Suggestions?

[Rock knocker]

I just upgraded from my old Lincoln buzzbox, to a ThermalArc Fabricator series machine. I liked the idea of a multi process machine. I have only played a little with it, but the Mig and stick are pretty slick. Probably wait just a bit to get a TIG torch for it.
I bought mine from a local welding supply, and they were running a sale, that put them within 40 dollars of all of the lowest web prices

I've been looking at the Fabricator also, and have found the same thing, that I can buy local for within $45.00 of on-line. Something to be said about buying from someone four miles away that you've known for 25 years or going down the street half-a-mile, versus buying off the net from some anonymous cyber source.
