Looked at the machine rear panel and there is a black insulator ready in place to take the 15Kg wire through to the 4 roller feeder. Hope that you can spot it, Its the small black thing below the data plate, Also just see it peeping through the casing on the reel compartment,

Thanks Gordon, that looks like a very nice machine.
One last question on this, does the 15kg reel carrier bolt to the top or the back of the machine?
I assume it's on the back and the wire naturally feeds into the insulator but then it might clash with the argon bottle.
My mig swivels on the trolly I made so the 15kg reel puts a stop to that, but it's quick and easy to convert back to 5kg reels if I want that feature back. (I find this handy if you are working in a tight spot and are using a 3m torch)

Hello Damian, 15Kg bracket fits to the rear of the casing, I have never used it, For the amount of welding that I do 5Kg is ok. The machine is very nice, Doing Mig,DC tig and stick, Also many synergic settings covering Steel, Stainless, both types of Ally, and Cu. Plus Pulse gun too, se, And will take a spool Hope you and your family in NI are all well,

Well the last day I said, when I saw it was only 2 rims and not 2 cars you had wrecked, that you must try harder. After seeing them I reckon you were trying pretty hard so

Have you ever tried to repoint & sharpen a centre drill in the drill press whilst using a small angle grinder to get the basic shape back , before putting in the cutting faces by hand at the grind stone wheel ?

No, I just buy a new one!
