Well search was down so hopefully I'm not posting something that has already been gone over.Bottom line question up top for those that don't like novels. What should I look for when inspecting a used welder?
My sister's finace's company is surplusing some welders and I'm thinking about picking one up. They have two to choose from, the Honda CR10 and a Miller Bobcat 225g. Both are used but are being sold for only $400. Seeing how the Miller,brand new, goes for $3800 it seems like a steal to me.
I haven't done much welding in the past 3 years but I have a ton of work piling up and I'm hoping that these will be able to help out. I have stainless and aluminum exhaust piping to put together, a fuel rail to fill and retap, as well as lots of little odds and ends. I'm guessing that either of these are overkill for such thin material but I do like the fact that the Miller is gas powered so I don't have to run a high voltage line to the garage (I rent so that money would be throw away).
What do y'all think?
