All the top brands (and then some) make a small 110V wire feed.
Is there really any difference between a Hobart/Miller/Lincoln? Or should a guy just find the best price.
I will be learning to weld and (at this time) don't have a need for heavy duty. Need to do some craft type stuff and small repairs for now. MAYBE some stuff up to 3/16-1/4" tops. If I could afford a 220V model I would one, BUT I CAN'T. /forums/images/graemlins/mad.gif
So I thought I would get a small unit, learn how to weld, then (if needed) move up to a larger unit in a few years.
So are there any difference in the small machines, or is it kinda like tractor colors (find one you like and stick with it /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif)
Thanks
