Nice. Is that 120v or 230v? The 120v never seem to weld heavy steel as well as they claim. 230v has a hotter weld

I agree with Dan, I have a 125 Mig. Not the welder I thought it was when I bought. If the money is right, then WTH. But knowing you and what you would want it for, I'd pass Bill. It'* one of those things you'll wish you went larger. It won't weld 1/4 inch steel of any decent grade without "stitching" the chit out of it.

Nice find Bill, I'd hate to see what would happen if you got your hands on a plasma cutter.
