Come on then convince me I can weld and tell me which welder I need.

If you can buy from the sellers in the eurozone and not those that are outside but pretend in the listing to be in
I got hit with a £50 import fee to my door on a 99 pence product
The torch i orderd was supposed to come with batterys and charger

Ive got some gauges in a box aswell


Can we bully malc into learning to weld?

Malc if you come for a night at our house ill let you stick loads of random stuff together with my mig
Im not worried about you breaking it i just want you to go and have fun melting metal

 

He's done it before Para...

 

I understand this toatally


Me and bern went through the same convo but with regards a syncro
It doesent make sense to the fairer sex dude

What do you want and wha are you willing to sacrifice it?

For that i dont need a decent welder and ive no welding work lined up this winter
Ill lend you y welder to learn with if you want malc but you will need to leave me with a cheap ass nasty one so i can stick bits of steel t5ogether should i need to

No i know what i mean malc
By my count its at least four years since we have been in eye contact

 

It's one of the main issues with some of the cheaper kit, really need down to 20amps. I research lots on welders, try to find a good second hand one, the sealey ones are very good and very well priced. Good welders that go for lower prices generally due to lack of marketing are


Migatronic
Monomig / smashweld
Lincoln(snap on , 20 years +)
Butters

These are high end stuff that is generally aimed at the commercial fabrication market, pipe fitting etc

This is pretty good for the money

These are all very good and well known so generally sell for more but no better than above!

Cebora
Kemppi
Thermal dynamics
Murex (snap on) last 15-20years

 

i got a sealey 185 off ebay seems to be a cracking machine. when i went to pick it up it came from a crash repair garage, theyd had to upgrade all their machines for insurance. was good enough for them, good enough for me.

oopss.i worked as mr ofts knobman while he welded my van so it helped me learn rough swttings for different jobs. thats a good start, if youre able to work alongside a pro for a bit.
also make friends with your local independent welding supplulies emporium. theyre very helpful
