LOL, yeah I want the Hobart as well. Listen Dball I am too lazy to research this Mastercraft, but if it is Flux Core only, take it back don't even open the box, and get yourself a real MIG welder. Flux core uses a special shielded wire and no gas, which means it spatters like a pigeon with diarrhea (ask me how I know). A MIG can do both, but don't waste your time pushing flux wire through it, just buy yourself a small tank of gas argon/CO2 for sheet metal welding
