A follow up note on 110 Volt wire feed Welders. Often they are advertised as just plug them in, and that they are capable of welding somewhat heavier guages. What isn't mentioned, is that they often require a 20 or 25 Amp circuit, to reach full output, which most homes and many shops don't have. Just because the welder may run a bead on heavier gauges, on a 15 Amp circuit, doesn't mean it has proper penitration & fusion...

Yup, it's gone...

Sorry for the late update...

Paul,

The owners guide indicates using a 20A circuit. Having said that, I only have 15A circuits in my garage. I've tripped them with my H/F metal chop saw, but never had an issue with the welder. Granted, I never ran the balls off of it either. I only ever did sheet metal work, with .023 wire.

I have a big 220V Lincoln for the more serious projects.

This is a good welder for body, floor, and light structural repairs.

Todd: Does the Welder provide full ampherage on a 15 Amp breaker?

Paul

Picked this up when they started closing down the shop @ work and liquidating the equipment. Not the same deal as the drill press though.

Don't really want to spend the money right now to finish setting up for alumium welding. Rather turn this into a plasma cutter "fund"

Where did you get that I thought you just had the big Lincoln.

***SOLD***

I know it's not Y-Block related, but I know some of you guys do some fab & bodywork like me. This is a nice little welder, used very little. Includes the regulator, gas lines, and about 80% of a .023"roll of wire (for gas shielded welding).

Very handy to plug into a 110V wall socket and go. Doesn't include a cart or bottle, but it's yours for $350 including shipping in the 48 states.

Manufacturer's description:

Comes ready to weld with or without shielding gas, no additional kit required. With an amperage output range of 30-135 it easily handles a broad selection of solid mild steel or stainless, flux cored, and aluminum wires. 10-ft. MIG welding gun operates from 115V standard household current, with an amperage output range of 30-135. Four output voltage settings with wire feed tracking for quick and easy adjustment. Welds 22 gauge up to 3/16 in. in a single pass. Features built-in contactor and self-resetting thermal overload protection.

The photo below is a catalog picture, but you get the idea. I can take a picture of the actual welder if you want.
