WELDER?

So im faced with buying a new welder for my shop at home. Will a Lincoln Power MIG 180c push enough for frame mods? whats the best welder for the dollar for building my mini?

a power mig 180 is perfect. I have the older 175 and its done perfect for me. I'm wanting to upgrade... but i don't NEED to.

Cool thanks.. I was also looking at the Clarke 190EN.. I was just worried about welding the frame up.

I own a miller 175 and it's perfect just make sure ur useing the correct wire for the job

Got it... ive done my research on all the ... well everything. Just wanted some insight on what people are using out there. Thanks for the help guys. Looks like lincoln it is. (ebay has a smokin deal)

I got mine from central welding for a killer deal (floor model) for $300 out the door

I got lucky and picked up a Snap on FM140A for 200 and another 150 in parts to get it working. Ive burned a hole through 1/4" steel with it. They are expensive as crap nw but if you can pick one up used they are the best welder Ive ever burned metal with. I sold my Miller after 6 months of having this.

Will a 140 amp miller, lincoln, or Hobart do the job???

I love my miller 180 autoset, welds 5/16" in one pass, all the way down to 24 g sheet metal
I would say 230v all the way
I had a lincoln 140 before this , the work was not as good , now my work is higher quality, less grinding, better welds etc

Great thanks for the info.. Gotta make a new 220v source in my garage...
