Sort of been keeping my eye out for a capable Mig welder. Something that can span from very light body/exhaust work to heavier work like building bumpers etc. I know I have a huge learning curve ahead. I have done some welding/fab with a small welder, but would have a big learning curve ahead still of course.
This came up on used vic recently. Any thoughts from the experienced DIY welders here? $1,500 · ESAB MULTIMASTER 260 MIG AND TIG
From a tiny bit of reading I did, the brand and quality is very good. Not sure if the price is on par or not.
Edit: Talking to a machinist friend of mine, sounds like this can't span to small work. But I do have access to a little Lincoln Mig Pak 140. Also, apparently welding can void house insurance? That could be a deal breaker, as my garage is part of the house. Although likely I'd be welding outside anyhow.
