I'm self taught. There are tons of info on welding on here and most manufacturers forums. I bought a Hobart Handler 140. It was the most bang for the buck I could find. Being made by Miller helped too. The gun actually says Miller on it. Definitely use a shielding gas. I use 75% argon/25% Co2. Makes for a much cleaner weld.

Thats what I was thinking. Wait till ya see the SuperBird nose piece I'm fabbing up for the front of it. Anything for better MPG.
