Just picked this up today, now I have to learn to use it more effectively. He showed me some pointers and we played with it for a little while, now I need to get some scraps. Bad thing is I have to run another 220 line for it cause the the one I have for my air compressor is different style plug. Oh yeah its a Lincoln 175 T.

A welder is on my list.. I will have to get a 110v one though. Unfortunatly my house was built in '62 and doesn't have 222v to the garage and it would cost a ton of $$ to get it there.

Also have a plasma on my list :)

You could install a double outlet box with both style plugs. Just a suggestion.

Cut all the ends of and make them all the same, but you will
only be able to use one thing at a time.

i also have a Lincoln, those are some good running machines, im glad to see you are going to run a gas bottle, thats the best way..im not sure how you are going to set your shade in your welding helmet..but i would start with a 12 shade or 11 if its to hard to see when welding.
