In college i did a year of stick welding. That was 7 years ago or something. I am ready to get into welding my own stuff now. I want to get a mig welder as i will be in my garage with it 100% of the time. My father has just told me he has a large gift card from harbor freight but really needs nothing from there. If i want it i can have it as an xmas gift or get some random gift (large family so it will be small something for the house). If i take the gift card i could get the 180 welder just over half off of the current price.
I am not 100% new to welding or the concept of how to butI have not welded in years tho. All the welding i did was on stick with a nice machine.
Would the harbor freight be a good welder to start on? Would it be up to the task of welding stuff for my buggy? I would like to take time to learn mig but then make small things like a roof rack, cooler basket, tool box basket, mabye more
