Hi all, hope you've had a sterling weekend. I'm on the hunt for a welder I've got a budget of £180 max. I've been told to stay away from the gasless ones. Il be using it for standard car stuff. Any help would be much appreciated.
Personally for £180 I'd be looking at a second hand single phase 160A Sealer SuperMig. I can't fault mine. Or go for an old trusty old model. Lincoln are usually pretty sh1t hot.
To be honest have alook in eBay, I picked up a has/gasless one with everything to run gas bar a bottle for something like 160 it's a company called Wolf I think. But don't let the unknown company names out you off, alot of them are just rebranded decent welders with different cases. Mine does everything I need it to do from a car restoration point of view
Wolf make (or used to make) all the air compressors and welding gear Aldi sold in their special events. The compressors were pretty damn good to be honest.
I heard loads of bad stuff about wolf welders, I bought a sealy mighty mig 150 for about 200 once I had all the bits to go with it. Easliy welded 4mm angle.
