bratman18 Posted February 6, 2009 Share Posted February 6, 2009 haha well i just lost some hours at work so.... not alot more money can go into my brat at this time.... why does the economy have to suck so much? Believe me I know! I'm still out of work! I have an interview tomorrow though!! Oh and I used all scrap metal for my bumper. It was 100% free to make except for the electricity the welder used!

That's what I have. By far the worst welder I've ever used but it gets the job done, you just have to get used to it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

By far the worst welder I've ever used but it gets the job done, you just have to get used to it. actually for a flux core thats made by chicago electric its a good entry level, since i can weld up to 1/4inch plate together its not bad at all. i would use my lincoln pro-135 mig, but i don't need it just for prettier welds for my bumpers, other people... sure ill use it. but why not the 90amp flux and take a grinder to it like i did to dress the welds, no one will be the wiser.

Yeah Mine does work quite well, but nothing compared to all the Lincolns I've used. My friend has a little 110 mig Lincoln and that thing works great with or without gas. Mine just isn't as smooth, and I don't like that it doesn't have a cooling fan. But it certainly gets the job done, and yes it's quite easy to just grind down the unpretty welds.
