Howdy-
So I have been reading the posts here about MIG vs TIG vs Stick vs Flux Core and all the other stuff with welders for days now.
I have a tiny cheap (Northern Tool) 110 amp wire welder... flux core with no option for gas.
The spatter is crazy, but it makes for killer sparks around the shop. This has gotten me by for all kinds of household stuff but I am seriously thinking about fabbing up a bumper/tire carrier, and some rock sliders, and doing some serious (read extensive) body work on a new cruiser project.
I think it is time for a new welder. I like how clean the MIGs burn.
Question, is a 220v MIG wire feed with gas my best option? I was looking at the Hobart Handlers... are there better options for the same price?
Thanks in advance, I know this gets revisited about every week here.
