    Mig Welder

    Anyone have any suggestions on buy a mig welder anyone own a Miller or a Lincoln looking to buy a small one that runs on 120 volt that would do sheet metal

    I have a Lincoln SP-135 and like it a lot. Miller also makes a fine welding machine.

    Just be sure to get a unit that uses a gas bottle. Stay away from the cheaper flux wire only welders.

    A buddy of mine has a Millermatic 140 with autoset and freaking loves it. Welds the hell out of about anything he cares to. He has the bottle set up with it and runs on household current.

    I picked up one from Sears. Sears contracts with Miller or Lincoln (or whoever) and then sells it for about $100 cheaper. I've never checked to see who made mine (may have to now...), but it has welded up a storm for a over 10 years now with no issues.

    I own a Millermatic 140 and it has been great. I have the 75/25 bottle set up and it makes all the difference. The AutoSet feature makes it super easy to use. Miller runs rebates periodically if you're looking to save a few$$. The kit comes with everything you need except for a helmet and gloves.

    Anyone have an Eastwood welder? Any thoughts on these?

    http://www.eastwood.com/mig-welder-1...5a-output.html

    They also package it with a spot weld kit- is the spot weld kit useful or just a gimick (yes, I will need to spot weld)? http://www.eastwood.com/mig135-and-spot-weld-kit.html

    They also have a 175 amp, welds aluminum too. These all seem pretty nice for the price. Amy i missing anything?
