I've done afair bit of research ovr the last few days loking at budget welders.
I've searched here and on locostbuilders.co.uk both of which have given masses of info.
I'm now pretty sure i will be getting a Clarke welder as these seem to have pretty good press.
I am going to need the welder for a car transport trailer that i want to make for the MK. I may also use it for restoring old cars, welding fences, gates general bits and bobs!
I have got my choice down to 3 welders as follows:
Clarke 150 TE Turbo - £199.69
Clarke 151 TE Turbo - £223.19
the only adv of the 151 over the 150 it seems is an easy access door to change the wire? And it is in a red case?
Both of these welders are in the hobby range
In the prof range there is the
Clarke 160 T Turbo - £234.94
This seems not to be able to weld quite as thick metal (seems strange?) and i can't see anything else that bumps the price up a bit?
I'm not sure the difference between T and TE??
Any help with picking one out of these three?
