    Was just looking for this Yesterday

    I was reading all the threads here and this one seems to be brought up alot. Best bang for your buck and nothing negative about it. I'm considering upgrading from my ol' lincoln buzz box (ARC) and cambell hausfeld 90A (MIG) to just this cause I definitely need an upgrade

    If you plan on doin frame work go with a 220v you'll be much happier. I have the same welder as the one you listed I've welded 1/4" no problem with good penetration aswell. I got mine from lowes I think it was like $750 then I got the bigger spool of wire so i didn't run out as fast. Also get a Boyle for it with 75/25
