Just a Curiosity Question Regarding Mig welders . Why do most , if not all , Mig Welders have heat settings , ( be it volt or amps ) , then the wire speed is the other setting , ( Say heat settings are the volts and then wire speed is the amps ) ?????
Just wondering Why you could not have Amps , Volts AND another knob for wire speed . Thus Simple Brained people like me could still weld Slow by having wire speed down but still have power up for thicker stock .
Maybe there are welders that way , but most I have seen up to the likes of a Miller 212 or Lincoln 216 are the same as the smaller 110/120 welders .
Again just Thinking out loud , Which for me , Thinking can be ?????
