Arc or gassless mig
Hello readers
I have a tendency to overthink things which can then lead to limited progress. This has been the case with getting a welder and learning to use it.
So in an effort to combat that I thought I should learn to walk and seriously think about what I will be welding. I have come to the conclusion that as a beginner it will be limited to general home welding such as a gate, shade structure, maybe a steel work bench and such.
Therefore the two economical options appear to be an Arc welder or a gassless mig.
Arc seems old fashioned and therefore mig is the way to go. But as I have aged I have become to realize that older technology can be highly suited to home use.
So if you were after an economical welder for general duties that will be only used occasionally which way would you go and why?
Steve
