Found a local Miller Econotig for sale for $900, has all the stuff except for the bottle (foot control, and other goodies needed), anybody have one or used one with good or bad experiance??
Usually they go for about $1300 or more so saving some money is always a good thing....I cannot afford a $2500 welder so this one caught my attention... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/welder.gif) It'll do aluminum which is a plus (up to 3/16" norm with thicker material if you preheat from what I hear) thanks !!! |

My friend had one for years and liked it and he welds quite a bit. The only gripe
he had with it was you can't weld thin material without burning thru. He sold it and got a Lincoln similar to the Miller. The Miller only would go down to 30 amps and the Lincoln goes down to 10 amps and is more adjustable. So if your not going to weld thin stuff it should be alright. |
