I'm new to welding and to this forum. I'm looking at picking up a multi-process machine. Is there any black Friday deals on welding equipment? I live in a rural community so there isn't a LWS. I'm just buying off the internet. I don't want to buy it today and then find that if I waited a week then I could have saved another 10%-30%.

Welcome!

I've never actually looked for Black Fraday deals on welders, but I have little doubt they exist. The big names will likely have some savings for black friday (Though Blue and Red aren't big on multi-process), and the off-brands will be more likely to take full advantage, so, were I you, I'd hold off a week...

Unless you absolutely have to have a welder tomorrow, I think I'd take the "wait and see" approach.

Thanks for the help and the welcome. I hope to learn a lot from all of the experts here. I'm pretty stoked about my new machine and getting my garage wired.

Be careful when you call any of us "experts"...

Each of us has our own little niche where we may have a lot of experience, and many of us have some experience in many things. Even the newest member or greenest welder has something to offer. The best way to learn from this forum is to study everyone's answer to a question, and pick out bits and pieces from each of them to apply to your situation.

Everyone has experience of one form or another to relate to you.

Cumulatively, the forum itself is the "expert".

Jody Collier did an editorial on buying a welder I read on his web site.
