What welder do you have?

I've got a Millermatic 175 mig. It does everything I need it to do. I've had it over 8 years and never had a minutes problem out of it. I've also got a Lincoln precision tig 225 that will stick weld as well as tig.

I would not buy a cheapie welder, I've heard some folks using Harbor Freight welders and other cheapies with good result. It is a valuable tool that will last a long time if cared for. Take your time, save your lunch money and get something you can grow in to.

Fabricating is like crack cocaine, once you start you can't stop, your projects get bigger and more complex. You don't want to get frustrated trying to use a machine after you outgrow it.
