Highbeam, the generator and separate welder is a possible combination.
WhiteRock, presently I have no welder or generator. The thickest material will probably be 3/8" or whatever "I" beams I use for the second story floor, tractor implement projects, gate, stairs, railing, and fence projects. I will probably be welding slowly and measuring and cutting so duty cycle does not have to be high. I have a half semester of welding experience and can do stick or MIG but would prefer both from one portable machine... am I asking for something that does not exist? /forums/images/graemlins/confused.gif
