I started looking into welding equipment for body/hell hole/jackstand repair of my 914. A friend told me that MIG is the way to go for this. My question is what specifications do I need in a MIG welder to get the job done without a lot of grief? Also, what gage steel should be used for making patches?
Thanks |

Millermatic 145. it has tip short protection, infinite power and feed adj and they make an autoset model (IMG:style_emoticons/default/agree.gif) That's what I bought (but it's 140, not 145). I am happy with my choice. |
