tbish, I realize people who weld all the time love their migs. People like me, who may drag the welder out 8 times a year to make a fast repair on dirty, rusty, poo covered, painted metal will find it takes too much time to adjust the heat, speed, wire size to make the repair.

After a few paragraphs I usually close the book and go back to banging out dents. A good friend and I were recently discussing our tractor electrical systems when he stated "I figure it all comes back to applying Ohms Law". At this point
