Let's talk welders...
I haven't decided if I want a 110 or 220 yet. I have access to both in my "shop", but then if I take it somewhere I might not have 220. I could ghetto-rig it at the circuit breaker, but sometimes you don't have total access to that. I know that 110's are cheaper, but it seems that eventually I'll want a 220 because they're "better" to weld with. What "better" means, I'm not totally sure...
I definitely want a MIG. After having used both a Stick (arc) and MIG, I'm much more inclined to use a MIG due to easier cleanup, or lack-of, and overall just generally easier use.
In the 110 division...
(still working on it)
In the 220 division...
-Lincoln 175, 180
-Hobart Handler 187
I've heard that the Hobart is really just a re-badged Miller. It's been touted as the best bang for the buck in the welders. I'm kinda leaning that way if I can find a good deal on one.
I'm still doing research, so any suggestions, recommendations, advice is greatly appreciated.
