Another damn welder question

I have read all the "WELDER" threads and i'm now dumber than before, everyone keeps saying, use this welder or use this one its better, so i guess my question is What i'am i to look for while i'm shoping around? i want a mig if that i can do body work and some frame work. THANKS to anyone that can help

Lincoln electric 135 amp. Perfect for body work and light frame work.(Notches, bag mounts, 4-link tabs, etc)

I use a Miller 175. Its great for body work, and will easily tackle frame mods. $700 shipped.

another vote for the miller 175, just swap out liner and wire size depending on what you're doing at the time

the 175 is nice.... word of advice dont get a synchrowave 200, i just got one of those, and you need a computer networking degree to run it

wow! If you have trouble with a Syncrowave 200 I'd hate to see you try a 250 or 350!

The 200 is real simple to use. What problems have you had?

t

im kidding, ive only used it for about an hour, the only tig machine ive used was a lincoln 175, so this is alittle more advanced. the pulse function is alittle confusing.....

i love my hobart handler 175

Its capable of some nice welds.

I have to cast my vote for the Millermatic 175. It has been a friggin great machine for me. I have had it for over 5 years, never had a problem with it, yet.
