OK let the arrows fly. Harbor Freight has a flux core, 115V 1 phase that works great for light jobs, and it's on sale. $129.00 perfect beginner machine.

I have this welder. It spatters all over the place, and doesn't penetrate as well as I'd like. That said, it does get the job done on small projects. Medium ones are a chore. I'll be moving up to Gas fairly soon. I'm trying to think of an excuse to buy a powertank kit.. and if I use it with my welder that just might do the trick.
