HF has a couple distinct classes of tools for sure. You have the single use cheap stuff, the maybe last a couple uses medium priced stuff and the quality, high buck stuff. I tend to buy the high buck stuff (when on sale) or in my ITC flyer.

Not like the others where all they offer is high buck stuff.

The Titanium 125 flux welder is (almost) back in stock. I went to buy one last November and all I could find was order now for delivery in June 2022. Six months away. I have work to do over the winter so bought an Amico 130a instead. (which I like).

Now the website says the Titanium 125 will be in stock March 18. For $170, not the recent $200+.

Don't own any HF welders, I have Lincoln in TIG and MIG and ESAB in pulsed MIG so all I know is I hear good things about them but no personal experience. 125 amps isn't quite enough beans for me as I like to do spray arc transfer and you need 200 or better amps for that.

Anyone have the Bauer 4x24 belt sander? I was thinking of getting a Makita but I do have a Bauer jigsaw that has worked just fine.

New batch of coupons out by email. Looks like most prices are at or near pre-2020 levels. 2K Inverter Generator for example, back to $499.

Looks like the days of $99 6.5 HP Predator engines are gone, though.

You ain't whistling Dixie on that. the 6.5 Pred motor took a steep price increase. Even the tiny 79cc Pred costs more than the 6.6 did a month ago. Lifan or whoever makes them must have laid on a huge cost increase to HF.

I know the 6.5 I have on my tiller has run flawlessly for years.
