I wanted to weld up some bits of rebar outside, and the wind was quite
strong. So, ideal time to try it in MMA mode...Â* and wow what a
difference! You can strike an arc with ease, it runs quiet and smooth
with a really nice stable DC arc, and makes it almost easy to get
pretty decent results with relatively little skill or practice. No
buzzing, spluttering, or sticking either.

Of course gasless wire would have done the trick too.

IME gasless wire is a bit sensitive to wind too. Another +1 for even the
cheap lidl stick inverter welder being quite easy to use (although I
find its limit to be 2mm sticks).
