When you say "use three #3's you mean 3gauge with 3 wires for feeder correct? And the #8 wire is used as the equipment ground for the plugs correct? and tie into the ground rod

So on my main panel box(inside the house) if I have a spare 100amp breaker I could tap into it too run power to the new sub panel on the wall of the shed correct? I have 100' feet of 6/3 cable left over from hardwiring my Lincoln ideal arc 250 in.would this wire be adequate for the main line?

Okay so using this panel will allow me to run my circits so 220 in and will branch out for my 110v,and a single 220?

I need power to my shed (15f) away from my house,I am planing on making it a small workshop (shed is 7x9) I would like 4 20 amp 110v plugs 1 15amp for lighting and a 35 amp 220v plug for a 211 amp mig welder, What size wire should I run and what size sub panel am I going to need. I WILL NOT BE...
