I've got a snap-on muscle mig I paid a very pretty penny for. I have the tig and aluminum spool gun too. SWEET machine. 140 amps, 100% duty cycle at 140 amps. Only thing is I wish it did a/c tig so that I could tig aluminum. I also have a snap-on plasma cutter(240v) and that too works nice. Only thing is the ground MUST be clean for it to work good. Torches are nice too. I like the portability and diversity of those as well. Use mine for heating and bending, or getting frozen stuff hot enough to loosen up. I've never needed to stick weld, but would like to learn some day. So far though, I've been pretty well set with what I need. The problem with a lot of the off shore stuff is the insides using aluminum for wiring or windings. The pricier stuff is copper. I don't know much about finding consumables for them, but I suspect they're all available somewhere. I think snap-ons stuff is made by systematics or thermaldynamics, I can't remember, but it's good stuff, but priced accordingly. The nice thing about the 3in1 stuff is it takes up less room. Something I'm running out of

Looks like Aviationben has had some luck with his though. Nice welding too!
