Re: Welder question and recommendations
I have a Hobart 175....underneath I think it's nothing more than a miller... or at least Miller parts interchange with the Hobart stuff...hardly ever run it wide open...only reason I'd want a bigger amperage welder is for the longer duty cycle....
Like Russ says...use solid wire and gas,,,,.030 wire for frame type stuff and .023 wire for sheetmetal...
I've had this welder nearly 30 yrs...well worth what I paid...but I'm currently considering going with a Vulcan 220...it runs on both 110 and 220 ad has mig, tig, stick options....we use these at work , they are a very good welder for the price...
