Can you buy the shield gas bottles or do you have to rent them?

Miller!

Great purchase! If you don't mind me asking, how much did it cost you?

I got it from Quimbycorp.com based in Portland, Oregon. They are actually local for me so what I did was I checked all the online prices and a found that the cheapest was $1796. I asked Quimbycorp to price match it and they did more that that. They gave it to me for $1699 as an online price even though I bought it from their store. Good guys to deal with plus for me they are local.

Wow, that's a great price. I've been thinking about getting a MIG and tossing out this cheapo Craftsman gasless wire-feed I've got. This welder I've got can't weld for ****, but burns through everything pretty good. lol.

Yup, good investment, will last a long time and hold its value.

What size outlet you need for that thing? How many amps?

I'm using a 3 prong 230v outlet with a 60 amp breaker.

I have the Miller 210, 230 volt with 30 amp breaker. Very good machine and mine was $1250 at Cyberweld. It has been a year so the price may have went up. It will weld up to 3/8 which is thicker than any I will weld. You never hear a bad word about the 251 or 210 at any of the welding sites so you won't go wrong.

 

[pl_silverado]

That is a badass welder.... i have the same one. I bought it last year but it hasnt seen much use yet... it will soon enough

 

[BoostAddiction]

I haven't looked very much at the new Miller MIG machines but I like the idea of the pull-open handle to coil cable and rest the torch. Good design!

Of course, it's the wrong color- it should be Lincoln Red!

It's not really the tools. It's having the huge garage/shops like some of those on here have.
