Now I'm not ,by any stretch,a great welder. But I can get it done.
Made a few bumper that folks said looked good.
They were all made with a little Lincoln 140 wire feed,120 volt. It was kinda toast after the fact,lol.
I have welded stick before and actually have more experience with that.
Anyway,at the local Murdoghckt? whatever, they have the home detpo Lincoln buzz box arc welder(220) the little 140,some 3600$ jobber and a line of Hobart wire feed welders.
Hobart has a 130a 140 a couple 190s and a 210? I believe.
One of the 190s has a aluminum spool and says it will weld up to 1/4"
So I'm looking to spend ,or hoping to spend about 6-700 MAX,but that buzz box at 300 is lookin good
Is Hobart a good welder? Remember I'm 2hrs from anything so a local purchase would be good. The fab/steel shop sells Miller and I know that's a good brand
Waddayathink?
