Re: Looking to buy a TIG welder, recommendations please

[quote="MinnesotaDave"]Put Miller, Thermal Arc and Lincoln on the list, keep HTP on it. Personally I don't buy "new" welders. I have bought over 25 welders off CL and Ebay Gas driven, large mig feeders, little 115 migs, buzz boxes and so on You can find used welders all day long ...

Re: Lincoln 256 or miller 252 ?

I have been in your shoes before :)
From what your saying, seem's like a no brainer
Go for the Lincoln, I don't think the arc is the selling point, just as durable....
Go for the Lincoln, probably a better price too.
The Lincoln is better quality all the way around.
I think thats 3 cents
