hi

looking for a decent mig welder for general garage work/repairs etc. it will not be used on a daily basis but still looking for something half decent that will last! had a couple of the wee SIP ones about £150 but they never seem to last and always jam or break.

money not a major issue really but nothing too nuts! what your experiences goog or bad....

thanks in advance

Any chance of getting the number aswell mate? I need a mig welder aswell.

 

I'd agree, clarkes are great

 

migatronic 160amp job will weld most stuff. any esab proper quality. butters ones. even the snapon turbo migs for general work

 

i have a sip 170turbo gas or gasless excellent welder never tried gasless on it but welds great and only £400 brand new

 

170A SIP, gas/gasless, around 15 years old, working perfect, a bit battered now, I use it with Crystal gas.
