If you think you need a welder, buy a welder! Dont spend the money on a welder you cant get rid of. I see it like this...

Your probably going to like it, and when you have a welder your buddies know it, and its like a trailer...

you have more buddies when you have a trailer.

I bought a used Miller econotig. traded an newer miller wire welder for this machine and its great for anything I do. its worth 1500 bucks and I know I can sell it tomorrow for that.

If you buy something off name thats harder to do.
