Re: Mig Welder Question???

I got mine (same unit shown in link) from this place. It was a reconditioned setup (from lincoln) Came with the same warranty as if it was new. I haven't had a bit of problems with mine for sheet metal.

Comes with everything but the tank (and a decent helmet)

Re: Mig Welder Question???

never use flux core for body work, i recomend a 220 unit, they work a little bit better and allow you to weld bigger stuff.

Re: Mig Welder Question???

I would go down to your local welding shop and buy there. I would buy either a Lincoln or Miller, I have a SP135 plus (infinite voltage and wire speed adjustment) 115 volt unit. I have welded all my sheetmetal rust repairs with it and some 1/8" steel. Do get the gas. By buying at a local welding shop they can help with your questions and service if needed. Plus you will need to go there for your bottle refills.
