Evening all,
I've recently rented a small workshop to hold all fo my hobby equipment, and a nice place for the weekend car.
I've been into engineering for a while, so I'm going to be putting all of my machinery etc in the new shop.
I need to make up some work and storage benches etc, and want to have a go myself.
I've got upto £400 to spend on the welder, this doesn't include the extras needed. I've also got 3 phase too.
At this price point I would sooner buy a quality second hand unit rather than a new one.
The benches will be from box or angle, but I would like to be able to weld upto say 10mm if possible.
If anyone can advise me of any particular models that are likely to fall into my price range, that woud be geatly received.
Many thanks
Matt
edit:
I forgot to mention that I will be using thee weldor for car repairs too, so must be suitable for sheet panels.
I've also thought about tig? is this a good place to start?
