Still got it as I carried it over with me to Philippines.
Also a few other quality fishing rods, reels and equipment. All good branded stuff.

From Lidl I bought a decent MIG welding kit for just under £80
The helmet wasn't much good so needed a better one but the welder was brill and used a lot.
I gave it away before relocating here as it was rated only for 230 volts at 50 Hz
Not seen anything close to that welder spec here for less than P25k
I remember you mentioning that rod before, no chance of using it on the river near you
