I'm going to have to take the unit in for repair GULP I had no
idea how expensive new welders that will do TIG and 300 amp are. My
worry, and I've seen this happen, I get a call a few days later
saying sorry can't fix your machine, the bill is $1000. BUT if you
buy our new box for too much $ we'll forget about the repair bill.
If you want to go new and cheap you might want to consider Everlast:


I'm only looking at blue boxes.

You might want to consider the Everlast . Mine has performed extremely
well for the nearly 2 years I've had it . And it was less than half the cost
of blue or red .


I think if I was buying a new machine but wanted to save some money it
would be one of the Lincoln MP units. They are a programmable unit that
does MIG, Flux core, DC TIG and stick all in one box.

Been watching Jody playing with one and so far it seems to be a real
nice machine. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T9WbwS54B-0
