This is what 36hrs overtime got me!
Well the old welder is the one in the picture below. I got that when i bought a car at a towing auction. the car had no keys and it was in the trunk. It is what i learned on. It is old technology. it was very primitive and worn out. it would lay a bead but it had a very hard time striking an arc and would sputter and stop feeding for no reason other then it is old and worn out. the one below only has 110 amp output and it limited my home welding projects. the miller 211 is just miles ahead in technology and as said before makes a novice welder alot better welder right out of the gate with the auto set feature. the 211 will also run on either 120v or 230v. I am building another car and will be doing alot of welding including the frame ties and reinforcing the k-member. just needed to step up to a better machine. that and i just plain wanted one. lol. the big deciding factor was when i ran it past the misses. she said "well you worked all those hours, you better get something out of it" i was on the way to the store before she finished the sentence. lol
