I plan on getting a MIG welder in the near future and was wondering if anyone has any good or bad experiences with the different brands. So far, I'm leaning towards Lincoln. mostly because thats what I used at school so I'm already familiar with it. not sure which one to get though. I was thinking about the SP 140T. seems like a decent welder, but I dont know how that would handle heavier work. I'm almost tempted to get a 220V one and turn it way down for light stuff just so I can have the ability to weld thicker metal if I wanted to. in a perfect world, I'd have a TIG welder, but I cant spend 2K on a welder right now
Thoughts? Opinions?
also, what would be the cheapest place to buy it from?
