    Millermatic 180 welder. Less than $400... act quickly

    I'd buy the 80 CF owner tank from fleabay and have it filled at you local welding store. 80 CF WELDING CYLINDER tank bottle nitrogen argon mixes | eBay $119 for 20 CF tank at TSC. This is 4 times smaller than an 80 CF tank. Very expensive and NOT a good deal...

    Let me see what I can do. Not making any promises right now. Your local Miller rep most likely will not be able to anything. When I get more details, I'll let someone from the club know. I'm not going to document this deal on the web site for obvious reasons.

    they're both marginal at best. I worked on a clark 130 EN. It has a very tiny drive motor, 6 ft. mig gun that is very difficult to replace the liner. If you're going to spend $400 on a welder, save cash and wait for the right deal to come along. Don't buy a welder unless it is Miller...

    Coupon expired on 6/12. Was meant to be used for Father's day.

    Yes and no. Pros: 1. Straight CO2 will provide a hotter arc than C-25. Could be a plus if your welder is near its limit output wise. 2. CO2 has about 4x the density of C-25. An 20# tank is equivalent to 160 CF of C-25 which makes for very economical solution. Many shops still use straight...

    Nice score on the HH 187. If you can't find a good deal locally, might want to consider buying an 80CF tank and having it filled at you local welding supply. Call around for prices. You'll want C-25 (75% CO2, 25% Argon) for mig welding. These are "owner" tanks (not leased) which you should...

    Did you notice Hobart 210 is not part of the lineup? I wonder if the HH210 has been replaced by HH210MVP? Some people have said the HH 187 is better than the HH 210 when it comes to voltage control. They both have 7 voltage taps. HH187 would have voltage taps that are spaced closer together...

    I don't think it is worth the price. IMHO, Hobart 187 is a better deal. I think the MM 180 will be discontinued soon. MM 180 from grainer is $826.xx + tax = around $900.xx This would be better if you didn't have to pay tax and/or if you had a Northern tools discount coupon. Hobart Handler...

    The Hobart welder you buy at Tractor supply is the same as the one you buy at Northern Tools or any authorized Miller dealer. Same welder, same parts (internal/external) and same warranty. Stuff you buy at Lowes of Home depot are Lincoln products and yes, they're different than what you get at...

    Bomar, Miller Passport is an excellent choice in every aspect. The only "negative" I can think of if the high cost. Some features: 1. only 45 lbs. Most small 110v welder weigh around 70-90 lbs. Not exactly portable for one hand. 2. Inverter based for maximum efficiency. Most output...

    Millermatic 180 welder. Less than $400... act quickly

    Another option to buying a welder... If you really needed a welder and was waiting for the MM 180 to arrive, I'd hedge my bets by buying the HH187 at Tractor supply. Buy it, but don't open it until you know the status of the MM 180 welder you ordered. HH187 is a very nice welder. You will...

    Glad to be able to help. Just passing info.

    The price of the welder is below cost. Meaning, you're buying them cheaper than what a Miller dealer can get them for. Full 3 year warranty from time of purchase. Buy a few to sell to fund you trip to Moab.

    It should come with mig gun, ground wire and clamp and 1 lb spool of wire and cart. This is a legit deal. Comes with all parts. I'm guessing that this model might be discontinued soon so they're blowing them out. Still a great deal.

    No problem. Get the Miller and weld them side by side to see which one you like better before you sell one. You just might like the HH 187 better. I was the only chinaman there. Does that ling a picture? I was with Georg at Cruiser Crawl last year. Red FJ40 on one tons. Yes, steering...

    You could always sell the HH187 for $450 and buy the MM 180.
