Hi there, just signed up to this forum to get some info on welders and welding. I spend most of my time and money on my bikes, scooters and transit. I've just taken on a new project of a trailer which is gonna need a good few bits of welding done, and I thought instead of paying someone to weld it for me I could get a welder and learn to do it myself!
Most of what I'd be welding would be angle iron etc up to about 3mm thick. ALL of my work will be outside, running off a 13amp socket. So from what I can gather, the best welder for me to go for would be an arc?
I'd be looking to spend up to £200, maybe £250 on welder and equpment to get me started.
Anyone got any pointers on good machines? Or ones to avoid?
Cheers
