Already got one buddy. :thumbup Syncrowave 180SD. I just need a matching MIG to make frame work, and suspension pieces quicker than makin sexy dime stacks on the TIG. I just got off the phone with Airgas over here. They have a new Millermatic 180 with the autoset feature and a 80cube tank filled and owned for less than$1000 out the door. The 180 has gotten great reviews and has plenty of nutts for doing what I need to do. the frame rails on cars are usualy 1/4 or so and I dont need to be doing anything over 5/16’s so I am good with a 180amp machine. ---

United Welding on Freemans Bridge Road has a MM180, lightly used, for $750 right now. If you call down there ask for Bob and tell him I sent you(Adam Hennessy) I was just there this morning picking up some misc parts for my welders and saw that on the floor. They also have a new 251 there as well. Good welder. The only portable auto adjusting amp welder I will use as it’s fairly accurate. ---
