Here is a picture of my MIG welder. It's a Handler 187 by Hobart. I have used it for 99% of my build and it works very well. I like to use 0.024 inch wire for sheet metal.
I also have a Lincoln 185 TIG welder that I only use when I can take the part over to my welding bench. Even then I typically just use it for welding on flat sections that I will need to hammer and dolly later. I really enjoy TIG welding but I like how quick and easy the MIG welder is especially when you are in awkward positions.
I'm still debating the engine choice but I am going with LS power.
