I dunno if this would be the right section for asking about a welder, but I figured since I'm not actually fabricating anything right now I'd figure I'd ask here.
This is the one I'm looking at:
http://www.sears.com/shc/s/p_10153_12605_00982888000P?prdNo=8&blockNo=8&blockType=G8
Reason being is that it's affordable, has the ability to convert to gas welding if needed, and it's 115v which will allow me to run an extension cord out to my driveway if needed. Now my real question comes in here, would I be able to use this with gas to do suspension fabrication or bumper fabrication? Would this also work good for body work, exhaust, and light frame repair? I really don't have the cash to buy a Miller, Hobart, or Lincoln, and this seems to fit the budget. Nor do I want to buy a used welder, I'd rather start with something fresh out of the box and maybe eventually in the future buy a really good Miller or Hobart welder. Any and all comments are appreciated.
