MIGs
Basically after a MIG for doing odd jobs on the car(s) and at home. I have access to high powered professional stuff at work so it doesnt need to be a
beast of a thing.
I have found 2 potential candidates, both the same price, but one is 130A the other is 150A. Which would you recommend?
I knwo the wire feed is a bit iffy on the DIY ones some times....
130A welder
150A welder
Cheers,
David

A good second hand MIG will be streets better than a DIY new one
Example

If you can keep you head, whilst all others around you are losing theirs, you are not fully aware of the situation

i have a sealey 130 turbo mig welder which i got for 100 gold coins.
I did a bit of gassless flux core welding last weekend and it worked very well, powerfull enough to weld two large spanners together (i ran out of
things to weld )
the wire feed was a bit naff when i got it but i replaced the plastic tube the wire goes down and now its spot on.
Dam...iv consused my ability with my intentions!
