Ive recently been using google to research about mig welding and this forum keeps poping up so thought I would get involved.
So, I started off playing about with welding about a year ago. I started off buying a used MAC Tools 130 gas / gasless welder and didn't really get anywhere with it, the wire speed was up and down, it was hard to learn anything with it.
Around 6 months ago I bought an old Thermal Arc 200 off a friend and started playing about with that but not really done much with it. Repaired a bucket seat mount in a friends car, welded a back box onto a car, made some shelving brackets but not done nothing for a while.
Last week I ordered a nice little list of stuff to get back into it and the postman delivered them yesterday.
New MB25 torch
Shrouds and tips
Grinding discs
Flap discs
Sheet of 0.8mm mild steel
Keep an eye out for more of my posts in the other sections in the near future.
