I have the hankering to buy a welder, probably a wire feed type. I

problem I see
is that the instruction book said for metal up to 3/16'th inch. Tha'ts
not
very thick, I'D prefer maybe up to 3/8'th inch, or more.

I'd really appreciate some of the features I need to look for in a
wire welder.

BTW: I don't really have a need for one, it is just one of those
things I
want. I might be better off to forget it altogether.

Your thoughts please.

Bob, asking about welder advice in a home repair forum is like asking
for home repair advice in a welder forum.


Wow, aren't we politically correct today?

There are lots of people here who have welding experience to go along
with their home repair experience. Me, ferinstance. I'm happy to
help people, and they don't have to belong to any little clique. I
guess you haven't been here long. We gets lots of questions about
welding and metal repairs here.

Well, I imagine the OP would love to hear your thoughts, then.
