Just to alert all to my experiences with Northern Tools Mig welder. I borrowed from my son and managed to burn a hole in the 4mm plastic tube that delivers CO/Argon to the gun. After three weeks of phone calls and delays I finally got an answer. Northern Tools has no parts and no way to get parts for their Chinese made Mig Welders. As far as Northern is concerned I need to purchase a new welder. If you are thinking of purchasing a welder, think long and hard before puchasing. This welder is scrap for gas mig unless I can find someplace to purchase less then 1000" of tube.
