WTB: Welder

[Lowrange2]

I need a used welder... I'm lookin for a 110v 140 amp Mig Welder... preferably Lincoln, Miller, or Hobart. I'll pay up to 400 bucks depending on condition.

I also wouldn't mind having a stick welder if someone has one cheap...

400 is just about what a new Lincoln Pro Mig 140 costs at Lowe's.

Really!? I thought they were running about 600 for that model at lowess... Hmmm maybe I'll go by there tomorrow! Thanks!

 

[DansGreyMj]

nvm i checked the site and they went up.

 

[Lowrange2]

well crap! When were they that cheap? I want one for that price!

How do you like it? Could I easily weld 1/4 mild steel with it?

its pretty good, i think it says you can do up to 5/16, but ive only done up to a 1/4 and i get good penetration. Check out that reconditioned hobart page theres some good deals there.

Thanks guys I see what I want reconditioned for 400. Looks like a deal. No bad words towards Hobart?

Hobart is just a Miller in disquise.

check the internet for promotional codes i got 50 of a 500 purchase at toolking.

 

[Lowrange2]

Cool. I'll keep tabs on it.

I bought one. I got a used Hobart Handler 135 with a bottle, reg, and cart for 400 bucks. It looks brand new!
