Came in looking for cutting torch tips an despite me not knowing they were not Universal, the ladies behind the counter were very patient and understanding of the fact.

Needed a ground cable for my Lincoln welder. Tonya was very nice up at the desk. But the fact that I can’t get a fully made ground cable for my Lincoln welder from a Lincoln dealer says something. They hooked me up with some cable and a clamp. Couldn’t even get me eyelets for the cable. I asked is there a certain cable that we can order for the welder via the model but nope all they can give me is cable and a clamp. I even emailed pictures of my welder into them the day before and told them I would be in the next day
