Reply:Welcome to the site LE,You may want to try Craigslist first. I bought my Miller 130 that looked like new this summer from a guy who used it to put some patch panels in his car.It came with a bottle and a real nice cart for $300Syncrowave 250MM130
Reply:Yeah I checked on Craigslist in my area and ALITTLE farther and nothing, bunch of no name ones, also I just found out homedepot has a online exclusive 286.00 for the Lincoln handy mig
Reply:I wouldnt buy either. Theres a reason why people end up selling entry level welders and buy the better ones down the line. The duty cycle on those things are nothing to brag about. You will end up spending more money in the long run. Go out and buy yourself a good welder. Your not getting your moneys worth for $320. Spend at least $500. You wont regret it.Ranger 305gMillermatic 140 AutosetDewalt Chopsaw2 grindersMy Fists

Reply:Well the work I wanna do I basic car restoration, floor pan, panels, maybe a new muffler that's about it, other than that I don't see wht I'm gonna use it for, no trailer builds, farm use, no roll cage, $286 can't beat that, also I can plug it to my house garage without changing anything sounds good, I'm gonna see if I can find it used |
