Hi, I just found this site, so I registered. Alot of good info I was a welder for about 25 years till my back injury. I always wanted a mig welder for home use & was at a auction a couple days ago. soo I bid on a esab migmaster 173 & got it & the manual for it for $175. Is there anyone here that has one of these ? Any good ? Its 220 volt so im thinking it should be a half decent welder . Thanks Bob
