Looks good. I like the caps/ramps for the mounts.
I have a millermatic 200 but I don't think I can weld aluminum with it........or mine would look like that.
Nice work.

Kevin,
The 200 will do aluminum with a spool gun. I built a bunch of aluminum stuff with my 251 which is the same machine but instead of fixed settings, its adjustable throughout the range.

If you have the steady incoming power, 1/4 and 3/8 is good to go.
!/2 " material will need to be preheated with a torch otherwise it will goose egg.

Most all the pics I've posted of my mounts and risers were done with the 251.

SLOW is better than NO.
Ah, yes, paint the Cummins. Winterized yesterday, 23 today. Timing, huh?
