Mig Welder

Post by mmjosh »

today i bought a mig welder off my school for £20.00 as they said it was not working and it included the welding mask so i inspected it and found out that it didnt have the earth clamp to earth on to the metal so i took it home and got a earth clamp for it and it is all working now so i think that was a good price :D[frame]Image[/frame][frame]Image[/frame]

loll nice one. i noticed it's a gasless, you might want to get a gas one in future for a smoother weld pool so that you can see better when you're welding. i had a mig it was called a cerbora pocketmig, but i not sure it was powerful enough to do structural welding, i would like a more powerful one these days, certainly a cool thing to have tho, great price, well done!
