    Sure. Bring it on over. :D
    I was happy with my Hobart. It did the job and did it well. The only tricky time I had with it was some of the sheet metal skinning where I wished I had move voltage flexibility. In the end it really didn't matter (from a looks perspective) because all the sheet metal joints got seam sealer over the top so most the welds are hidden.

    Yep.

    alright I'll leave now cya in 3 days :cookiemonster:

    I'm very happy with my dads Hobart so far I just wish it was capable of 220 since we have access to it in the barn. Maybe I'll talk him into splitting the cost to upgrade to a slightly bigger one someday

    Yeah I've never used anything but 220v welder. I say save your coin and buy the welder you want.
    I bought my Hobart 9 years ago brand new. It served it's purpose and I sold it for almost what I payed for it 9 years ago (one good thing about inflation I guess). :D

    I'm definitely going to look into it, thats for sure, dad bought it as a farm welder to fix little things around the house many years ago. So it has had its fair share of use.

    Also I must say, I like how you built the truck to your driving style and not the other way around, would not of been nearly as interesting.
