About a pound and a half...........................

  I was gifted one by an unhappy user. There is no value other than the shape
is a bit better for me. Just having may hand closer to what I'm working on
helps me a bit.

If you cannot do a job with a conventional unit, you probably cannot do it
with the Henrob/Dillon.

There is a shield to protect your hand, that you will throw away soon after
try to weld anything with it on place.

It is not a new and improved anything. It is a different shape, and that may
be of some use to some people.

If you can get one cheap, or try one out first, do that. The people that
demonstrate these things are just real good at it. If you are real good with a
regular torch, you will be real good with a Henrob or a Dillon. These will not
provide skills that you don't have now.

Recently installed a new motor-mount underneath a very large electric motor (Took me a day plus just to find and rig for the
access required to install).  Used a Henrob to cut out the bolt-holes for the mount while the motor was hanging.  Was very
glad I had it and was pleased with the extra control I thought I had. I'll keep the cutting shield for the cutting-ops.

But then I don't claim to be a welder.  I just have to repair stuff and shove it out the door without embarresing myself or
exposing anyone to liability.  We also acquired a Miller Tig $3000 worth. I like them both.
