Re: Welders!

Depends on what your going to do with it and what type of wire you want to use. Its a 110v so your electric meter will spin like crazy. its probaly going to weld 1/4" in a single pass using flux core wire, no gas. if your idea is body panels and no more that 1/4" thick mild steel it should be ok. using gas it should be good for spot welding panels. The nice thing abot 110v is that you can drag it to a buddies house or anywhere there is 110. 220v is a little harder to find but it is cheaper to run.
