Clarke 165E Mig

[Lavo]

Hi Guys,
I have just purchased a Clarke 165E Mig welder for £100 which I am collecting tomorrow. Is there anyone with any opinions or experience of this machine. This is my first welder and after reading some of the posts in this forum I decided on a Clarke. Any responses would be appreciated. Cheers

If you bought it as "WORKING CONDITION" get the guy to run a couple of beeds of welds on top and bottom power settings to "SHOW IT WORKING" while you still have the cash in yer pocket (unless pay pal payed) then you have ebay?/paypal?....? to chase up it it's a non worker.

Even if it's a "DOES NOT COME WITH GAS CYLINDER" sale then it should still lay down a beed of weld, albeit rough and splatery cos no gas round weld.
