Is gas a big advantage? The 102 can weld steel up to 4 MM, which is plenty.

get a gas mig welder without a doubt i've been using clarke welders on cars for 30 years there fine for the job ive currently got the 151TE model like Glenns and its does its job well
if your doing a lot of welding buy a large bottle of gas plenty of companies sell them now so its not a expensive as it used to be and its a one off payment then you just swap the bottles when there empty
the small bottles from machine mart don't last long at all
