    I agree with you on the AirGas raping thing... man walking into that store I feel robbed already.

    I'll take a look. Thanks! Really all thing thing needs is a new gun and ground clamp. Both work they're just beat to hell.

    Ive been using Lincoln L-56 .30mm exclusively and it is great wire

    I found their M-150 gun for a $13 cheaper here, I am definitely going to get a new gun though. Thanks for the heads up!

    Said it works for any Millermatic or wire feed welders. This welder is rated for up to 180 amps.

    Just remembered something. Try and find out what store supplies your local welding school/tech college. In my case its Arc3 Gases, but anyways they give big discounts to school aged looking people.

    Haven’t installed mine yet, but I was planning in using the add-a-fuse things for the truck radio fuse on the interior fuse panel
