Guys,
I think I am going to order a welding rig. I asked this question last year and got some suggestions. The biggest question was bettwen 110 and 220. For 914 projects, do I need a 220? |

220 will cost you slightly less operating, but you'll need a 220 circuit wherever you weld. Of course, tt's nice to have a dedicated 15 amp 110 circuit so you may end up installing something anyway.
If you ever want to take your welder somewhere, 110 is available wherever you go...I had to take mine across the street and weld some new studs onto my neighbors swimming board mount....no 220 there. If you're going with a Mig, make sure you get the gas option...flux core wire is messy. I've got a Miller 135 and love it! I also have a large stick welder, but the mig will do everything up to and including frame work. .02 Troy (IMG:style_emoticons/default/welder.gif) |
