Hi all I'm after some advice in buying my first mig welder and my arc is on its way out and tbh Im not fantastic at arc welding,
The sort of mig welder I need is to weld 3-5mm steel. I'm currently doing a car project that requires me to weld roll cage tubing ( 3mm ) to 5mm base plates,
My price range is up to £300 I don't mind second hand I'm just after what's the best bit of kit for the job on my price range.
I won't one that will accept argon/co2 bottles if possible the 110l hobby ones as I don't really have enough room for the gas bottle.
It's that or is any one a pro welder ner Worksop (s80 ) and won't to earn a few bob one weekend welding se bits up for me, I need it to be strong as the welds will be holding the engine mounts for the engine and I'm unsure on if I welded it it would hold up haha..
Thanks for any advice
