I have yet to learn to weld. I would like to purchase (and learn on) a welder that will be most useful to the average "car guy"...welding sheetmetal, repairing broken mounts, adding brackets to rollbars/frames, etc. Nothing exotic, just basic repairs for the average mechanic. My shop has 220v if that matters. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/welder.gif)

I'm not trying to knock down any welders of which I have certs for but, in my profession, a structural welder of buildings, preasure pipe and bridges, are iron workers with the wits knocked out of them. Welding is 95% visual and 5% technical. Most accomplished welders are uneducated people with mediocre common sense. If you have some common sense and a grade 12 equivolent, all you have to do is ask someone who can weld and watch them do it. Just write a list of things you would like to weld and ask what that is worth to ya in investment. I have a Miller gas powered Bobcat in my back yard which does all welding processes and when a hurricane goes through, I have power to supply my whole house. Gotsta keep the cold ones aaaah cold!:beer1:
