To prove that it's tractor/tool related:
I don't want to afford a oxy/axcetyline set for now and then use.
Wire feed welders are outrageous here (thought I found a cheap one but it was just an add on for a major machine).
Saw one for about a hundred bucks at Northern Tool (120 volt).
House current is 230 volt 50 hz here with 3 wires 40 amp(2 and a ground).
When you measure voltage, you get 230 volts when you touch the meter to the two live wires. Touch the ground and either of the live wires and you get 115 volts.
Could I wire a plug using the ground and one live wire and just run a seperate ground to use the the Norther Tool welder?
