Ok good list folks, I've talked to enough people who say even I can learn
to weld so I've decided to stop whining and cringing in fear and get a dang
welder and go at it - though it may or may not be on the '73 sitting on
blocks as I'm still debating that one.
Having consulted the list archives, I feel ok about brining this up again.
The summary of the archives seems to run the course of most of the names
out there: Miller, Lincoln, Tip, Hobart, Century, Daytona...
Here are a few questions to supplement the info gleaned from the archives.
1) What features do I need to look for? I.e., is there a minimum amp
rating (85, 100, etc.) I need? Seems if the wire is not constantly hot
this makes things easier. Also, one where you can make small variations in
heat settings rather than just 4 or 5 preset ones.
2) Is there a chain that has consistently decent prices?
3) I can get a Clark 100e for $330 locally. Anyone with experience with
these?
Thanks for any advice.
