Don't burn yourself.Bought a new Lincoln welder today, 210mp has a 25% rebate. I have wanted to learn to weld since I watched my Grandfather weld when I was a teenager. He was a welder for the PRR. I also bought a Hypertherm plasma cutter. Should be a fun weekend.

That's a nice setup. I went to College for welding. I was hoping to have a shop by now with a setup for welding but it's been on temporary hold. A plasma cutter is another great tool to have.Bought a new Lincoln welder today, 210mp has a 25% rebate. I have wanted to learn to weld since I watched my Grandfather weld when I was a teenager.

I was looking at the Miller 220 multiprocess welder but I can buy this one an the separate Lincoln tig welder for about the same price.I love working with metal. It's not like wood, you can add to it. Haha. That's a good welder. I have the equivalent esab multi process machine. They stick and mig well. I dont really love the tig part of it, but besides that they work great. Check out welding tips and tricks youtube channel.

My father was a welder at Lincoln elect. for 30 yrs I had a chance to work there also but didn't. A non union shop top shelf operation back then. I decided to go into law enforcement instead. Never wanted to work in the same very small area everyday. jzMy old miller. It weighs over 400lbs. Old transformer machines like this run stick so smooth, but run your power bill up quick. My little inverter is used alot more. Yes my shop is a mess.
