Mig? Tig? Miller? Lincoln?

[cmperry4]

Well, I'm certainly lapping up the tips and information here avidly - I've been thinking of getting a MIG unit for work I expect I will have to do down the road. I've been eyeing those Italian Deca units that Princess Auto has.

(BTW., they have one on for $399.00 in their current flyer):

That's $100 off the regular price.

That one is:
" 115 Volt AC, 20 amp input
• 85 amp @ 20% duty cycle
• Automatic thermal shutdown protection
• 4 heat settings, variable wire speed; cold wire trigger
• Externally mounted torch and ground clamp output jacks for quick and easy switch from flux core wire to gas welding"

Might be a little light duty for some.
