I've been looking at the Miller 180 and it seems to bpretty versatile. I'm probably gonna buy it pretty soon

i would get a miller 180, lincoln 175, or hobart 180. all are good welders for about $750-800.
as far as a plasma goes...noone really NEEDS one. thats sure luxury. plan to spend some dough on one tha will cut 1/4". OR, you can grab a Cobra welding/cutting torch for about $350 and oxygen and acetylene bottles and get similar results.

Just pray you don't need a warranty part, its like pulling teeth without anesthesia.

Do you care to elaborate Seth? I work for a Miller Distributer and authorized repair center and they are awesome to deal with. What issues did you have?
