Hi i am new to mig welding and would like some help ,i have got the choice of 2 new welders,a cebora craft 180 for £300 and a butters 170c for £250 which one should i go for, if any , and why any info on these machines would be gratefull
The Cebora Craftmig 180 are nothing like the Cebora's of old, with a poor quality wire feed/motor assembly and overall construction, in my opinion! I can't honestly vouch for the 170C Butters as I have never used one or had one in bits, but I suspect a similar scenario.
One machine which I can comment on in a similar price range is the Clarke 175TE. They don't have a Euro-Torch fitted but they are a cracking little machine inside, with a bank of smoothing capacitors giving a nice crisp arc condition & a proper industrial type contactor unit.
