Use It For Free Or Own It
Neighbor brought over a millermatic 130, 110 volt welder today. He says I can use, store it or buy for 150 dollars. It is in good shape but does not have the gas kit. I think it is a good deal and I am going to buy it. I hate to borrow things and if I build a cart and get the gas kit it will be all mine.
So deal or no deal?? |

Re: Use It For Free Or Own It
How long did he keep it?
It is a 110 wall plug. and I did some 3/16 plate with it using the flux core in it. It took a large loop and weave to do, but it is a strong weld. |

Re: Use It For Free Or Own It
They are good for little jobs. They tend to work best plugged directly into a wall and not an extension cord. The flux wire is faitly easy to use. I have a big Millermatic 210 that I use at the shop for building cages and big jobs...

Re: Use It For Free Or Own It
I was gonna say it is too small... store it for the neighbor and if you find you need a bigger one, buy a 220v 185 amp Lincoln that will take a gas bottle and run an aluminum wire spool gun .........uh-oh here we go on the welder war again

Re: Use It For Free Or Own It
Did we forget that this was a $150.00 welder opportunity?
