I'll have a look thanks
Yes, as I said at the top, mig is all I have available. I got rid of my stick and bottles when I ended my business. It's not a bad unit, it welds 1/2" mild successfully.I have welded a vice jaw with 7018 rods, it was a quick job (needed it quickly) and has taken quite a beating over the years.
If a Mig is all that’s available my biggest concern would probably be regarding how much power it has to avoid a cold weld.
If it does break, it’s likely to be a nuisance but not dangerous.
