A shot of the inside. Not much to it but that transformer is heavy!

Loving the new platform guys! Just figured I’d post up a couple of photos of my Grandfather’s AIRCO buzz box I just got from my Dad. I think it is circa 1960ish. Going to contact Miller and see if I can get a manual and a bit more information on it. Also going to teach myself how to stick with it. Starting out with 6011. If anyone has any experience with one of these I’d love to hear about it.

Was also able to get the manual from Miller. Apparently Miller and ESAB bought AIRCO (50/50) but the welder was made by AIRCO before the purchase. This manual is dated 1964. Cliche, but they don't make them like they used to!
