Broke_Audio_Addict Posted April 22, 2016 Author Report Share Posted April 22, 2016 I'd like to learn it all eventually. That being said a lot of people's definition of "music" is a clipped 30 hz sine wave with some 80 IQ knuckle head grunting about committing crimes and his genitals.

3vil Posted April 22, 2016 Report Share Posted April 22, 2016 One thing to be aware of with the 211 is the older ones are "copper filled" and the new ones are inverter. This may not mean anything to you, but most of the older guys I know prefer the heavy old copper filled units. I feel that you don't get quite the same amperage on the inverter units, but that may be that I've heard the opinion form so many old guys that i know/respect that I've let them taint my view on the newer technology.

JP-12 Posted April 22, 2016 Report Share Posted April 22, 2016 ^211 is a solid machine, probably a bit too big for your needs but the 212 I think it is and the 252's are awesome as well, and they're on wheels so no need for a cart. My professor brought in a multiprocess Miller welder a couple weeks ago that was only like 10 lbs max (without wire). It could be set up to TIG, MIG, and SMAW, and he said It preformed well enough to use on job sites, so it wasn't just a one you'd pick up if it's just a hobby, but it was probably one of the coolest welders I've seen. Looked like a little brief case. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Broke_Audio_Addict Posted April 22, 2016 Author Report Share Posted April 22, 2016 I'm looking at the Lincoln power mig 210 mp too, seems like a great little machine for the price. Seems like there are a lot of brand nut huggers in the welding community, I've seen bad reviews on a couple different welders that said they rated it low because it's not a miller, wtf?

3vil Posted April 23, 2016 Report Share Posted April 23, 2016 I had a Lincoln 135 for my garage welder years ago and it was great for hobbyist work, wish I never sold it. When we started the body shop we had a Lincoln 140c and it was total garbage for what we we're doing, it couldn't handle fine/thin work like the newer sheet metal cars are made with these days (tin cans). Did ok on thicker stuff though. I personally like the flexibility of a 120/240v rig. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
