    @Wanderer555 any luck in the end?

    Yes, I purchased the MIG200S to get started here.

     

    Kovet BKK directed me to a dealer in Udon city that also provides support & repair service. 


    Fair price given they are a real shop and not just an online seller.

     

    Thanks for the advice ????????

  2. ฉันลาออกแล้ว  
    The above was included in a business conversation regarding when I could visit a shop to make a purchase.

    I am in Isaan, maybe a local spelling ?

     

    The translation is not logical given the circumstances.

     

    Google :

    ฉันลาออกแล้ว:    I resigned

    Removing ฉัน ( Chan)  

    ลาออกแล้ว   :  not found in other Thai  

                          dictionaries 

     

    Could I get some help here? 
    Thank you, T

    And Google gave me the original route this morning with nearly same times.

    Are you familiar with the route from Udon city to Kalasin via Kumphawaphi as provided by Google? 
      
    Not the easiest route when traveling the first time, with many motorbikes, Etans, tractors and poorly marked turns.

     

    Also the route from Nong Bua city to Ubol Rattana is not the clearest path…

     

    I have taken both of the above and they are doable but also at the end of a long journey ….. 

     

    Good luck ????

  5. There appears to be a shortage of Benfotiamine with iHerb placing a 2 bottle limit on the LifeExt… product. 
    Others are sold out.

    Your retailer might be limiting individual sales especially for international delivery .

     

    Also anything over about $45.00 US can trigger a customs inspection.

     

    good luck

    Philips blenders are reliable, IIRC about 700 baht when I bought mine about 8 years ago. Still going strong.

    Agree, I purchased one about 6 years ago for smoothies etc. Stong performer, acceptable noise level and no issues.  Reasonable price too!

    Try Kovet, they have good English support team, warranty etc avaliable.  Strong brand in welding.  

    https://www.kovet.com/

     

    Have a range of welding machines for MMA/MIG/TIG

     

    Some Multi-Process.

     

    Wide price-range depending on budget.  

    Thank you, this is what I was looking for.
    Cheers, T

    Not a fan of multi-process machines, but we used Laem Thong as a supplier for over twenty years and they sell good equipment and consumables. 

     

    When you say medium are you referring to amperage or duty-cycle? 

     

     

    Per the OP, "Amperage rating around 200 or better, medium duty with a decent build quality.":

    Adding 'Cycle' to the medium duty would of been more clear. ????

    If you want to be understood, it does.  But maybe you don't want to be understood, which is fine.  Your choice.

    Population of the USA:   333,287,000

    Population of the UK:       67,508,000

     

    Statistically, almost 5 times as many more people will understand the American version than other more archaic versions. 

     

    Facts are facts, but in real life many could care less. ????

    If I was going for a low cost Lazada option, I think I'd go for a basic stick arc welder with non digital control knob.  For TIG/MIG I'd look at the options in Homepro .... they have a decent range and come with a guarantee.

    I think the brand names are of little significance, as they're all made in China and appear under multiple brands?

    Cost is not a factor or mentioned in OP, and as stated I have a good quality Welpro MMA welder (stick). 
     

    looking for first hand experience and prefer a model with supply chain for parts etc…

     

    thanks

    Gas MIG you have very few choices at the lower end, as in under ฿15,000 possibly only 1 or 2 over 20,000 lots of choices, relatively that is. TIG is Virtually abundant often with MMA

    Yes.. as stated in the OP I am aware of the many options. 
    Looking for first hand experience not generic info and as stated in my post specific brand or models etc. 

     

    cost is not a factor …. My OP states the requirements ????

     

     

  12. Good day,
    Looking to purchase a medium duty Multi-Process welder, looking at Lazada etc, there are a plethora of options, and would appreciate some recommendations on brand, model etc.

    The majority of the work would be MIG for 4mm thick mild steel or less (gas and/or gasless) , TIG for bronze sculpture castings and similar.
    For MMA I will use the Welpro box I currently own.
     

    Amperage rating around 200 or better, medium duty with a decent build quality.

    Thanks, T

     

  13. As mentioned by @wwest5829

    The Retirement Extension using the monthly income method is IMO the safest and easiest of all the Marriage and Retirement Visa Extension options.

    If I remember correctly:

    You apply for the Extension after first acquiring a 1-year Non-O Visa for Retirement at a Thai embassy in Laos or other Visa friendly country.

    Then deposit  65,000 Baht per month, produce an annual bank statement & letter showing you own the account plus the usual passport and address verifications such as a lease etc.

    Removes much of the drama surrounding the Marriage documents required, No large deposit required, and no seasoning of funds.  The only negative is some may not want or need to send 65,000.00 Baht each month.

    Currently on my 7th extension, and very happy with it.

  14. If you paint the Flex, it will last much longer as it has no resistance to UV.

    If available, a short length of PE ( see picture) will do the job and last much longer, though not as flexible as the Yellow Flex.

    FYI: All the blue  & yellow PVC on the exterior can also be painted to extend its lifespan (looks better too), as the locally available product appears to have little or no UV resistance.

    Cheers, T
