Which MIG for heavy industrial work?

[snowcat]

Now a freind of mine runs his entire shop, and he has some serious gear off a genny ex hospital, 150kva 6 cylinder RR engine very quite, and it cost him £800 with 50 hours on the clock, there are also ways and means of geting 3 phase as long as there is a 3 phase transformer nearby,

Anyway as for your welders,
Im going to say kemppi, fronius, or murex Iv had a couple of problems with lincolns customer service recently.

You people think i live in Southern Ireland? No, no, no i live in the Northern part.. So since that is the UK the shipping should be cheaper?

Errr... nope. Royal Mail is fine on small stuff but It's still gotta go 'over the water' so that bumps it up considerably on larger consignments, a 180Kg. machine... ouch

Even though you live in Northern Ireland the rate for a full pallet is £125.00 plus vat, half pallet is £70.00 plus vat, if I was you I would look to buy from a local supplier, you will have better back up if anything goes wrong, I have a friend who is based in the north who could help

Now, I'm not an expert with this stuff, in fact, I'd lean towards being a beginning but I'm, learning a lot from this forum. I'm not sure if it will help but I learned a lot about industrial equipment <SNIP> Their welding page is in the "services" section and outlines what you should look for when it comes to specific type of welders.

If it helps, great, if not, sorry to waste your time.

I can't see this post anywhere

Maybe 'jonathon' was a spammer which is why the post no longer exists, Malcolm is pretty good at spotting them, deleting the posts and banning the users.
Maybe 'he' posted yesterday so those who still have email notification turned on would have got an email?
