id say to go with a mig forsure, i was taught to weld light gauge with stick but its pretty tricky, i think vertical down was the easiest with the thin stuff, but if you got a nice little mig you could pick it up easy, i also agree that flux core sucks, instead of a sheilding gas coming out of the gun along with the wire the flux core is a tubular wire with the shielding inside the wire, it is a bit trickier (sp*) to start your arc with and it isnt as clean either, i think the first mig im going to get is an inverter, you can weld stick and all sorts of other processes with it, that is waht i learned on so i think id get frustrated if i got a dinky "pocket mig" with 1,2,3,4 settings for volts (heat)....hows that for useless rambling
