    Bunnings have it for $500I see yours is a130 amp. Do you trip your power when using it. Talking to a few welders at work they all said go at least 170 amp.

    The bossweld MST185 at bunnings costs 500. It is a very good welder. I see industrial suppliers selling these for more dollars..You will need to pay an extra $160 for a tig torch. And $299 for ownership of a d size argon bottle with $99 Swaps when empty. And 20 bucks for a better arc handle. I bought the tig torch. This unit is lift tig which is easy to use but not as good as hf which you will find on higher end tigs. What impressed me about the tig on this unit is that the low end of the amp scale is accurate. You can weld really thin shyt with this. Then I got the TS200 ac dc at a good price with no torch or any accessories... The tig control plug is different. I rang the supplier Dynaweld fully expecting them to tell me to fark off and buy another tig torch, but instead they talked me thru the process and sent me wiring diagrams !
    Awesome service.

    Take eveyones advice and dont use gasless wire. It is horrible messy crep. My roll went in the bin after using it for 30 seconds.
