I am looking to buy this to finish my project. I was wondering if it will get the job done. I am welding a core support on and welding firewall back in. comments on this welder would be much apreciated i plan to pick one up today. http://www.homedepot.com

 

says it welds up to 1/8" thick I dont think that is enough but i cant afford a nice mig. This wire feed is only 249.99

 

That was my first welder. It's not really that bad I guess but the duty cycle sucks donkey ***** and it can be pretty inconsistent as far as input amps. Max power on that thing is about equal to 60-70 amps on the Miller I used the other day....thats pretty shitty imho. Thank god I almost never use that thing anymore. Honestly, I suggest you save up for a couple weeks and get a hobart handler or something.

 

I have a lincoln 135 plus and love it!!! I got it at a goood price too, check out http://www.weldingsupply.com

Very good Prices

 

Yeah, go with the 135 as mentioned. Lowes has the best prices on them...something like $430 or so. Check them out.

the lincoln works really well with core support or welding anything, i have my intergra conversion on my hatch and works out really good. i even made my own support and everything.

 

It will work fine, but I'd have to reccomend one of the Hobart machines. They're cheaper than the Lincoln, and every bit as reliable, if not more. Hobart's small mig machines are second to none.

 

I have my Lincoln and love it.

Did my entire exhuast on my car, from downpipe back...

No complaints here..

 

Which holbart, for how much and where? I'm needing something cheap but will last a while...something to lean on.

 

do any of you guys know the difference between the lincoln 135 and the lincoll weld pak 3200hd

 

lowes vs. home depot i think haha. i dunno, i have the weld pak 3200 HD (christmas/b-day present from my g/f last year )

 

hows it holding up till this day good or bad...out of a scale 1-10 what would you rate it. and have you welded with aluminum with that yet or what about stainless
