Same as most things - bigger is better. Spend the bit extra and get a 220V machine with variable heat and wire speed. I have a small 110V unit with variable wire speed and 2 heat settings. I am watching for a good deal on a bigger and better one.I would have been smarter and it would have cost me less in the long run if I had just bought the better one first time out. You also want the shielding gas if you are going to do bodywork.

Is MIG welding something you can learn by doing, or should one take a class? -- OK Don, KD5NRO Norman, OK '90 300D, '87 300SDL, '81 240D, '78 450SLC The FSM created the Diesel Benz http://www.venganza.org/ _______________________________________ For new parts see official list sponsor: http://www.buymbparts.com/ For used parts email [EMAIL PROTECTED] To Unsubscribe or change delivery options go to: http://striplin.net/mailman/listinfo/mercedes_striplin.net
