and since you mentioned the seat brackets that we were talking about.. here is a link to the ones I built that we were looking at.

That's exactly what sparked this thread. It's time to get a welder and do this right and build something like what you have. That welder you have, though, is definitely out of the budget. Your brackets are beautiful though. Very professional.

do you have access to 220v outlet in your garage? this will dictate the what kind of welder you can buy, unfortunately if not then options are limited and you couldnt even weld with gas if you wanted to.
harbor freight still does have standard 120v flux core welders which are decent and will get the job done for the amount of times you will use it, i think they are below $200 as well

That's a good point. Don't have 220v yet, and will need some work done before I can get a garage with that kind of power outlet. I just looked at HF's 120v welder and it seems to get decent reviews. Perhaps one of those and a warranty will help me get the job done. The price is definitely right.
