I’m looking for a new MIG - I’ve finally had enough of my unreliable little SIP MIG.
I’m looking to spend around £700 but could possibly stretch to £1k for the right machine.
I’ve already got a single phase 32a outlet in the garage.
My projects are usually with 2-4mm stock but would like to be able to work up to 8mm or higher if possible.
I’ve been looking at the following machines to give you an idea of what I’m after:
SIP HG2400 - surely it can’t be as bad as my baby MIG? - the duty cycle is impressive and I won’t be asking anything close.
Clarke MIG230 TEC - good reviews and seems a fair machine for the price.
Lincoln Electric 231C - at the top end of my budget. The numbers don’t seem as impressive as the others but the brand has been recommended to me.
