History
- First Draft of Proposal: 10/5/2023
Background
The air quality in Hot Metals sucks. When folks are welding you can generally smell it before you see it (and hopefully you only see it through the curtain or a welding helmet) and after awhile the fumes can become a bit overwhelming.
Have a Particular Machine in Mind?
Yep, the Miller Fume Extractor FILTAIR 130.
Wait, why this machine?
Why Should We Get This?
Having a PS1-owned TIG machine gives all members more opportunities to make cool stuff without running into the limitations of what the MIG welder can do, from delicate aluminum work to 3/8" material (aluminum and steel). Want to make furniture, delicate metal art, repair other equipment around the shop? All can be done with a TIG welder.
Language
We authorize the board to spend up to $2700 to acquire a fume extractor and all necessary accessories.
