I am purely a hobby welder. I like to tinker and create. I am self taught outside of some basic lessons in high school. I currently am running a Hobart handler 210 mvp and Lincoln buzz box. I am happy, but I am starting to feel the voltage settings are limiting (set voltages, not infinitely adjistable) and I am beginning to see the value in learning another process like tig.
I am thinking of ordering the Lincoln 210 power mig with the tig torch as well. Seems like people are really happy with the mig capabilities, but I do not see much info about using it for tig. Adequate for the diyer?
Like I said, I am purely a hobbyist, mostly making furniture and what I call "non critical" projects (nothing for vehicles or the likes). I do intend to buy some property soon, and along with that some work vehicles, so keeping stick welding capabilities is necesssry. Would the one welder that does it all ok, but not anything excellent be ok? Or should I hold onto the buzz box?
