    my cheapo, a confession

     



    wasn't so cheap when I bought my (90 amp?) 110volt century fluxcore, but I can really recommend mine. was on sale $240 and I didn't even know at the time what I would ever use it for besides rust repair/
    good for 1/4" with a creative beveled edge?
    actually try to steer clear of 1/4" for other reasons (wait maybe it WAS the reason- been so long I forget

    guess if you work on trucks this might not be a good idea

    was gonna upgrade to regulator for cleaner weld but figured I would want a bigger welder later. never got around to it

    but now I see some for ~$140 + fluxwire ~$50
    some I have seen for $99 at places I don't buy tools I wanna use alot...
