Time for a new welder (New Toys!).  Shop has 220V 30Amp service.  Biggest
decision, MIG or TIG.  I always felt that just about anyone can weld with a
MIG, though you have to be careful and use some technique to get good
tubular frame welds.  I think TIG is generally considered superior, but then
you need a rod.  I'll keep my old acetylene torch around for cutting and the
big heat jobs.

Anyone have any make/model recommendations?

Thanks,
Jim.
