Gonna revive this real old thread. Since I've had some time on my hands I have been researching some welders. Mostly this things I would like to do with it are things like weld up my Evo rockstar skids, weld the tabs for eventual hydro assist, some day put on Evo weld on sliders. If I get good enough the 10 year plan for my 2dr is a stretch with long arms. I also do various furniture pieces for the house. The Hobart 140 looks great for price and being able to weld up to 1/4"
I have a very small bit of mig and Tig experience in college but my buddy was the one setting up the machine for the most part. The Hobart 210 looks like maybe a better option for versatility and being able to weld bigger projects as I would love to do a trailer build at some point too but I have a feeling I'm only going to use the welder a few times a year.
With that said for those that have the Hobart 140 how do you like it? And would it be able to handle the projects mentioned above or is the 210 really a better fit for things like the sliders and brackets? I'd hate to spend the money only to find out it's not big enough for the jeep projects. But I also don't want to spring for a $1500 set up and hardly use it.
Thoughts?
