got myself a cebora, second hand but like new, complete with twoo lots of wire, two gas canisters (the right ones not pub CO2) and seems to work fine...one question though...it seems very oversensitive in the thermal cut out department...you have to get it just right!!!

I have a Cosmo 180. It, too, is a damned good welder. They're SIP units painted yellow.

Yes and no. There are several different types and you need to match up but SIP swan necks should fit.
