I had one of these its really no good for doing sheetmetal you'll just burn/chase holes with it an get frustrated.

it was best suited for welding heavier stuff but at 80 amps it really was good for that either.

if you plan on doing sheetmetal save up for a decent mig you'll be much better off.

I give the one i had credit for one thing IT WAS BEAT TOO HELL BUT KEPT ON WORKING

word of caution if its grounded becarefull cause the wire is hot an you'll get flashed if it touches the work this also makes it very difficult to get setup
