I am need of some help here.
My dad needs a welder for Xmas. I would like to find him a machine that can MIG and TIG weld if such a thing exists.
The cost needs to stay around $1000+ or - a bit.
If nothing like that exists for under 10 Gs then my next step would be to see what you guys have found for MIG deals and for TIG deals.
Anyone know of any Xmas specials going on right now?
I love refurbs and scratch and dent stuff too.
If MIG and 110V then it needs to be a larger 130+ amp style machine.
If MIG and 220V then it needs to be a 175-180 amp style machine.
If its a TIG tell me what ya know, cuz I dont know **** about tig welders.
If its a combo then tell me all ya know.
Links kick ass too.
Im not interested in "new" companies or bargin brands like HF or "extreme zapperbox" kinda crap.
Mostly looking for a Miller, Lincoln, Hobart etc.
I seem to remember a while back that there was a place to get CHEAP hobart refurbs.
Any ideas?
Please dont suggest a 200+ amp miller. I know they will wipe your ass and cook dinner too but are not needed here.
