I did my first project with it last night and is just unreal the diff between a cheep welder and a good one.
No more excuses about bad welds this thing is welds soooooooo nice.
If your thinking about buying a cheep welder just to get by I would say save up and buy a good one!!

I dont rember what model it was but it was a small Licoln 220 volt unit.
I had originaly bought it for body work ect and it worked ok as long as you dont use it to much as it would tend to over heat, I even put an extra fan on it and it would still overheat.
Then there was changeing the liner about every other month and the rollers kept wearing out ect.
The Miller 251 is prob more welder than I ever need but what else is new.
I had been watching them on EBay for about a year and ended up getting it cheeper from the Local welding supply place than anywhere else.
I think a Plasma cutter will be next!
