Since I'm getting all this attention, I may as well ask the question - how'd I go welding railway pegs with a model such as this SIP150?
This is the sort of thing I'm thinking of:

I thought the bottle wasn't a disposable one and have asked for some detail. That was what originally sparked my interest. What do you make of te regulator - can you tell much from it?
What's a PD?
Thanks fellas
I noted that this model was a transformer whereas (I assume) most of the newer cheapies are inverter based. I've tried to see what the advantages / disadvantages are via a few youtube videos but I'm still unsure.
Are there decent Chinese inverter based migs worth considering?
I've been keeping an eye out for a 2nd hand MIG to get me started at a hobbyist level (mostly sculptura stuff), and thought I had found something today as the price seemed good and it came with a gas cylinder. But after having a look at a few threads around here it seems they are not very well...
