Hello, this is my first post as I have just returned from Halfords after seeing the SIP 130 mig welder for £149 and googled it and luckily found this site telling of wire feed problems.
I need a welder for small vehicle body repairs. I want to spend as little as possible to do this but still need a decent reliable machine. I was trained in the Royal Engineers to class 1 standard in all welding practices on really good machines so I expect these budget jobbies will take a little getting used to.
Can anyone suggest a decent enough machine? Is there a guide anywhere? Is gasless wire any good?
Thanks in advance.
