Hi
I am looking for a new MIG welder but i haven't bought one in ages and was wondering if i could get some real world recommendations.
I am getting asked to go off site more and more to weld broken/cracking chassis's on machinery and need a welder with some more amperage. It is mostly plate from 7mm to 9mm.
Things i have to consider:
Weight - I have to take it in and out of the van on my own
Amperage - More the better (Duty cycle not important)
Power supply - It has to 230v as 3phase is not always available to me on site.
Budget - £1500
I understand i could be asking for to much and that is fine i can make compromises, i would have to say the Amperage is the least flexible.
If anyone has some recommendations please share and i will do some research into them.
Thanks
Tom
