I am currently a helper and want to learn how to weld, then break out, i dont have much i am saving up now looking for something around $1000 w/ leads if possible. i am in north central texas right now. You can either message me on here or email me at jtman2140@hotmail.com, or call me at 318.525.2692 thanks joey
What are you looking for? Probably an engine drive? Just thought I would ask. Let me know! Thanks. Steve.
yea im looking for an engine drive, i need something that is cheap but runs if it needs paint or some work on it, i can handle it... thanks
Hi, Joey. I don't have an engine drive. I thought, just by chance, that you may be looking for a shop machine. Ebay has several cheap SA's right now. Some with very reasonable buy it now prices. Just do a search under Lincoln & do it in the business & industrial category. I am confident you will find a decent cheap engine drive if you look for one. The rental places in TX like Mitrowski, Applied & Affiliated will have them too, but they will NOT be cheap. Ebay's the best bet for a cheap, running machine. Craigslist is a good place to look as well. Remember, if you get one cheap...Expect to do some work on it. I'm pretty sure you got that figured out by now though. :-) If you did find that perfect deal & need shipping, try myfreightquote.com. They are very reasonable.
Good luck! S.W.
"HEY! You lookin'?? Got a Five-O for thirty five." (Something a street corner crack dealer would say in Naked City Neighborhood, Las Vegas, NV.)
good luck finding any machine for a 1000, i got tired of looking for a good used second machine, so bought a brand new vantage 300 in 07.
Hey Partner,
Good luck in finding a machine. I just want to remind you of something that I am sure you are aware of, but anyways, "Buyer Beware" you get what you pay for so shop wisely. :-)

Hey you guys , let 'trash23 have first shot at that 250. He's tryin' to break out and is needin' a machine.
joey i want 4200.00 dollars for the machine
sorry its taken a while to get back with ya been workin 6 10's and been busy when not workin... anyways i am in fort worth/arlington...
there a man in sulpur spring has a sa-200 ,1985 , his number is 903-945-5856
the man in sulpur spring the machine has about 1500 hours on it,
dude keep checking craigs list I found a sa 200 I think it was like 1980 for 500 dollars in Baton Rouge La I was hoping to get but just a day to late now i'm sure it had to be totally rebuilt or maybe not but hey for 500 and complete not bad at all. Keep checking craigs list you'll find something near you and it maybe best to find something like that, that will need full rebuilding because once you go through and rebuild it yourself at least you can step back and say I know this thing won't fail me on a job. I've fully rebuilt mine and I know I could put it to work and it won't fail me well there is always that chance but I know I've really slimmed it down now though. I think you said you were up around west of Shreveport area so thats a good area to be I've seen alot of sa 200 on craigs list up around there.
Goodluck
Chris

Shad, when I worked at the auto frame plant a guy returned to work after an extended absence due to elbow surgery [He was covered by the insurance program]. He said He was happy to be able to work, not really happy to be back at the plant, but happy to be able. Being layed up is a *****, with all the things You need or want to do but can't.
