A lil more on this box? I was day-dreaming before about Millers spoolmate #3035. For my welder (millermatic 175), it does indeed need an extra box. I thought the box was just for gas control as my welder does not have an extra gas connection. I did not think the box added high frequency. I thought high frequency was used just for starting/maintaining the arc in tig.
Edit: Oh, I liked your "making art" comment. One day maybe I too can make art.
