Re: Fourney 190 Bought their little 20p plasma awhile back, small but so was the price. I am happy with it so far.
Re: Fourney 190 Found a somewhat hokey review... the video at the bottom is of more value. Multi process, but it only welds up to 1/4". 115/230 volt capability might be handy for some guys though. No aluminum capability. https://thereviewerpro.com/forney-324-review/
Re: Fourney 190 I've had 2 professional welders use my 225 buzz box. At the end, they both stood back with a surprised look on their face and said " That's not a bad little welder." Welded everything we broke for a lot of years. My Sears had the carbon arc attachment, but I've never bought the carbon rods to try it out.
Re: Fourney 190 The one on the left was popular in my area. I never welded with one but I have heard the had a good AC arc Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

The one on the right came with soldering iron and a pretty much useless carbon arc torch for “brazing” and heating. My dad bought it new off the Snap-on truck in 1966.

Re: Fourney 190 lol... nobody wants to talk about Forney... all I have is the old buzz box so no help here either. I have no idea how the newer ones are stacking up, but my experience with the old ones is that they weld very well for what they are, and nobody likes to admit it.
Fourney 190 Has anyone had any experience with this machine. There is one on kijiji I may be interested in. Not that I need it.
