    started out with a tiny 110 v century. when it died of triple pass welding from surpassing its duty cycle years lated I replaced it with a bigger amped hobart 110v that would run circles around the former. when i run out of flux core i wire i might get a bottle too for it.

    I didnt plan on having to weld anything thicker than 3/16. I don't weld semi
    frames. But I did have to weld an extension on a 20 ton jack for jacking my house out of 1/4" and it is presently holding up one side of my house just fine.
    i could tell it was straining the jack when i jacked it up, too!
    thats 20 tons load PLUS the 6" of LEVERAGE(reach) on the welds.

    think it was only $450~ ish at FArm and Fleet with cart?
