Pics of my DIY tig welder

[Mike W]

It is based on my 30 year old Linde buzz box. I took off the cover and one side.

Here is a closer view of the front, the first pic wasn't that great.

This is a pic of the full wave bridge rectifier. Below it is the heat sinks for the scr's which vary the 220 input.

This one shows the foot control for the scr voltage control. I set the welder for the max amps I want and the foot control will vary the amps from 0 to the max set.

Thanks for showing your nice welder. Good job!
