I guess I was meaning low power for the job at hand when I said sub par. I find now here on the acreage, welding projects call for more power than the stuff I was doing when in town. When in doubt, I go with stick. My Lincoln 210MP does great mig welding, but I really like the stick function for heavy metal. Not a pro but do also have a Miller Dynasty 200 DX, mainly for tig capabilities. Also for ***** and giggles, I bought one of those tiny dc inverters from HF when I was in Fresno some years ago. I would trust a weld done with that before a low powered squirt gun. Started out with a Miller 225 buzz box, did all manner of welds because as was said, work with what you have, make do and learn. Have enough hood time, made enough mistakes too.
