Welder Aluminum
A look at what is currently available on eBay
What kind of welder should I buy?
I have a few welding projects coming up. I want to buy a welder, but it gets confusing, Most of what I will be welding is 1/8th" steel(+/-), I don't want to spend over $300. I may want to weld some aluminum down the road. Thanks
You'll end up spending closer to $600 to get the whole setup you need.
Its best to spend the money on a good welder now than to buy a cheaper one that dont half work right and have to re buy later.
You want a mig welder, not to be confussed with a wire feed flux core welder. A mig uses solid wire and a bottle of gas (argon/co2 mix for steel)
Better brands are hobart, miller and Lincoln
Look for a welder that gives a good range of amps, like 25 to 30 amps on low to 140 amps on high.
This will give you whats needed to weld a wide range of thickness
With the mig you can also weld alum, buy using alum wire and a diff mix of sheilding gas, some mig welders also has option of adding a spool gun for alum welding. You can also weld stainless steel with a mig using again a diff gas mix and diff wire type
I myself use a hobart handler 140 amp mig welder and I weld thin sheet metal all the way up to 3/8" thick steel with it.
The handler 140 runs around $450-480 and comes with your gas line and reg.
You then will need the gas bottle. You have a couple options here. You can rent the bottle or buy one outright. When I 1st got mine I rented a large bottle (140 cu feet) *stands about chest high*
The gas company I got mine from done a 6 mo. contract, $5 per mo rent 6 mo. paid up front ($30)
Then $32 to fill the bottle with gas (so $62 up front out the door)
After that I bought the same size bottle, $175 for the bottle and same $32 for gas fill)
They have all diff size bottles and each size is a diff price
Then you will need a pair of leather welding gloves and truthfully IMHO a cheaper auto darkerning welding helmet is a must have. For the gloves and helmet check out harbor freight. I used teir auto darkerning $50 helmet with good results, and you can get a 3 pack of leather welding gloves for $10
