Great price of a DIY'er not on a par with my 25 year old Oxford oil filled welder though.
Heat added.

I'm a dad that used to lug them around when I worked as a fabricator. They are very heavy to carry on your own. The fuses used to blow a lot too (wrapping fag paper around the fuse helped, not much health and safety around then).

cheap price but you need a mig welder for car body work as arc welders just melt big holes in thin sheet metal
