after getting annoyed with the welder i spoke to a mate who posts on here regularly and poped round for a tea and some weldling lessons.
we played wtih the migmate and the below happened.
was getting inconsistent feed = unstable arc which means there was no welding going on. The wire was heating up to quick and melting to the tip.
to stop the it burning back we had it on full speed and was weldilng clean 2.8mm ish sheet.
and then we played with his clarke 160t and i had no problems at all!!!!
so is the migmate fixable
