Must Have Mig Welder People Read This
Please note WB has achieved this outcome with a 28 yr old stick weld welder.For a first time trailer fabricator he has done an excellent job and should be commended for it.Greenie on the way WB.
Migs are mainly mechanical and those mechanical items are the bits that wear and fail and get hard to replace when old. The stick welder is versatile, ultra reliable and economical to purchase and to run.
Those with the idea that the mig consumables ( the wire,the gas, the nozzle , the liner, the gas shroud and the insulator ) are less expensive than a packet of stick electrodes are having a problem with their maths.
A false expectation can be held by those hoping that using a mig will be a cure all for their percieved welding problems.
Folks, its a high volume machine and if you have the work for it it is cost effective. Ninety nine percent of all my welding is stick welding yet,I have easy acess to a mig. Its not a flame or criticism but an attempt to correct what seems to be a popular misconception about mig welding machines.
If I have missed out on offending you, please form an oderly line to the left.
