Miller, Hobart and Lincoln are the most common names and are good machines. I have a Chicago Electric 220V welder that works just fine. My welder doesn't have good control for sheet metal but I can make it stick for what I have been doing. I would recommend at 220V machine if you have the outlets to make it work since these welders will allow you to weld thicker metal and weld for more minutes at a time.

I have enjoyed making bumpers, sliders and such for my truck but it does take some time and effort but for that is better than buying.
