Default Clarke 130en or 180en mig welder?

Hello H-T,

I'm thinking about getting into the fab scene and was looking at some mig welders at fleet farm for starting out. Found the clarke 130en and 180en.

Which one would better suite exhaust, headers, etc..??? 130 puts out 110v and 180 220v, I think...

130 is good for mild steel but would it hurt to go 180en?

Do you guys have any experience or suggestions on using these particular products?

Let me know.

If your going to get into making Manifold/headers and all that jazz, you'd want Tig, mig machines ussually run hot and probly burn throught.. but its possible
