Catch240 is on the path to ruinCatch240 is on the path to ruin
stick = messy as fuck
mig = welders hot glue gun
tig = sweet welds

if your only planning on using you welder for basic car repairs(rot) and house projects a 200 amp mig welder will be more than enough.

If you want to get serious go with a 200 amp tig welder. I prefer miller, but lincoln also makes good welders. and youll need a welder capable of doing ac current if you want to weld aluminum.

If you go with a tig welder expect to drop 3k for a decent one. A decent mig welder can be found for $600-750.
