Yes, definitely get a welder that can do both sizes.


I just ordered the Eastwood mig welder myself.
They consider it "Heavy" as far as shipping, that kills the free shipping ($24.10 shipping).

The ATD mig welder (110 volt) I've been using for the last 33 years still works but has seen better days.
It's obsolete (was British made) and parts are no longer available.
I've patched it up (Miller trigger and hose) and replace other parts in it.
I paid $350 for it new back then. laugh2

I figure it was time for a new one.

For the $200 price I decided I shouldn't put off buying a new one anymore.

I use it for bodywork/sheet metal at a hobby type level so it should be fine.
I've already got the Argon/CO2 gas bottle from the current welder, so I'm set there.

Kayse can't keep up at all now. lol
