[QUOTE=jay see;807454]Well after some googling and taking in the information from you guys and some of the guys at work. I'm pretty sure that I'm going to go with a 135 amp machine.
Reason for this is the 2 people that have these are happy with them mudski (cigweld) and a guy from work(Michigan). Yes a bigger machine probably would be better, but I need to look at the cost as well, anyway if I need to do big long welds and I can't do them at home, I can always get it done at work.
I went down the cheaper path too first time with the rossi welder. A 130 amp Mig only welder will do anything that needs welding on the pooey. But if it costs 300 bucks to buy, and you have the option of spending another 200 to 300 on a Bossweld / unimig / boc ( cigweld ) unit think hard because if you need the extra power or the ability to tig you will be unhappy. Been there, done that. And a lot of the cheapys have a non removable torch. Avoid this if you can!
