I want some input from some people on this. Im mainly going to be doing small projects (stainless exhaust) maybe some Aluminum braces, nothing crazy hardcore. I'm looking at the Thermal Arc Fabricator 211i (the 3 in 1). I was initially looking at the 181i but had read that its only a DC setup where as the 211i is AC/DC. Does anyone have any input on these?. I am willing to spend like $1500 on something. I'd buy a nice miller or something but I simply have other projects ahead that wont allow for it. So any feedback would be greatly appreciated on this unit. Thanks.
