You gotta tell us what you want to weld

almost anything and everything. copper aluminum steels. the works

get a used popular welder. that way, in a few months when you figure out what welder you really want, you can sell the first welder on ebay and not take a big loss.

The second question would be how much do you want to spend?

Depends on how much you make at dem 3 jobs.


Adding Alooominum into the Mix adds to the Cost

What machine are you using at School?

Sweet- it only took 10 posts to discover you want a Tig machine- information that would be good in the first post.

Look for a used Sync- you already know the price of a new one

srry but i didnt think you ever asked wht kind of welding just what i wanted to weld on.

Buy a used TA-185, at minimum. Or a Dynasty 200 DX. Both are expensive. The Diversion won't stick weld, so it's a single process welder; a deal killer for me. Spend the money now, it's a lifetime investment.

So is this a test? We're supposed to be mind readers? And what's srry and wht?

id say do with the dyn.200 it's a great overall and usefull machince. and if you need something bigger you'd get your money back on reselling it.

if ask me id get a hobart 140 handler you can put a spool gun on it if u want and it uses flux-cored or gas so you have the option to not have to spend alot of money on gas at first. I bought my HH 140 for $439 brand new at TSC plus it came with an auto shading helmet.and its also very easy to set up.
