I had this exact welder. Purchased from Harbor Freight. Doesn't do sheet
metal very well due too the flux core wire. Works great for thicker
stuff though. I'm looking into a full gas equipped MIG. My journeyman
welder buddy recommended the Lincoln SP125 as the best all around home
welder and said it will last for years. He says the Lincoln Mig Paks are
not made as well as the SPs. I'm also looking at the Hobart that Sears
sells.

OK, while we are talking about welders, does the
description below sound
like a setup I could use? I can't tell if this is
really a MIG welder, or
something that is supposed to imitate it. I know that
whatever this is it
would be a lightweight, but I will need one for
bodywork.
