Body Work & Welders
Griffin 7 February 2005 21:12:53
	Looking to get a welder that will mostly be for doing body work on the Jeep and some other bits of metal work in the shop. What do you guys recommend? The budget is about $500 CDN + $100 for the gas bottle. I'm thinking mig, 220V with gas feed. Don't know much else about what to look for and what to stay away from. Been looking at Deca, Lincoln, and a few others. Any input would be great!

	I will give you one vote for the Lincoln 175T. Plenty big to weld auto parts with, will be great for body and sheet metal work. Yes it is an investment, and yes it is more than you wanted to spend originally, but with this option you will have a useful tool that you will not soon outgrow. You just can't get enough heat (amps) out of a little 110V welder for jeep / fab type work. The 220V opens you up to take on those type of projects. That price sounds like a good deal, is this from an online place or a local shop?

	1/8" if it is clean, prepped and an idea set up. How often is that reality? Sometime those extra amps are need to make up for the dirty area, or less than perfect ground, or a variety of other issues. "L.W.
