[AT] MIG welders

[Cecil R Bearden]

A hobart Handler or a miller are the best ones.  Century makes some good 
mig welders for a little less.   Stay away from the Harbor fright or 
chinese ones.  Too hard to get replacement parts.  Be sure to get one 
that lets you use shielding gas.  You can go broke using that flux core 
wire, and it also does not make a pretty weld for sheet metal.  Flux 
core is like using stick..
