I couldn't agree with you more Mike. The only thing I would add would be to make sure if you get a stick welder that it is AC/DC, not just AC. And if you would rather have a wire feed, get nothing less than a Miller 210. I wouldn't weld anything, personnaly, with a torch setup anymore. Way, way too much heat input, takes too long, weakens base material..... I don't care what any old timer tells you, or any other gas-welder for that matter, they swear by anything or process they were raised on, or have been doing it that way for so long that is the only process they know of. ((I try to avoid these types of arguments with my grandpa...)) With the technology out there now, you shouldn't be welding with a torch set up at all, no matter what the reason is. Brazing and cutting is all that I use my torch outfit for. Branden
