Reply:That's kind of like asking what's better Ford or Chevy. You also don't preface that question with any limits. Are we comparing smaller multipurpose machines aimed more at the home owner market, or are we talking about industrial units?.No government ever voluntarily reduces itself in size.

Reply:Tweco, Lincoln, and Miller machines all bring something different to the mix.. Pick what fits your needs best, then it will be the best machine hands down.. Nice to have such great variety in the 3n1 machines.. (Former owner of a C-300 Powerwave..) Kind of nice too..Last edited by Brand X; 05-18-2015 at 04:14 PM.Esab/Lorch ET-220iEsab 160i caddyThermal LM-200 Lincoln feedersThermal Pee-Wee 85sThermal 60i- 3phase /RPC powered (Beast)Thermal Drag-gun 35CINE 1500 Klutch 140i

Reply:Exactly. That's why I asked the OP to clarify what he was looking for. With a name like Jerry's Mechanical, I could certainly see the possible need for an industrial class machine.Used, these systems aren't really all that outrageously priced especially when you look at what you get..No government ever voluntarily reduces itself in size.
