Mate of mine wants to get into welding. Asked about a cheap Mig. "Only" wants to weld stuff like garden sculptures - make outdoor furniture etc. Nothing hard - maybe a few RSJs
I suggested he forgets a cheap Mig and looks at an inverter arc welder. Welding 6 to 10mm needs quite a bit of oomph.
I had a quick look on Ebay - sub £140 welders. The choice is mind boggling!
I see you can now get cheap combined machines.
Perhaps an Arc around 160 amps that will also do gasless mig etc.
Any suggestions?
People have never been so spoilt for choice
