I used his the other night playing with his tunnel in his truck. It's a nice welder. I'm not sure what brand it is. I just know how bad mine is after using his.

Old cardboard boxes are a must! I hate attempting to get oil, grease, gas, antifreeze, etc. off the garage floor.

That Hobart 140 is the welder my brother has and the wire feed has been screwed up from the get go. When it feeds correctly it is a good machine, but when it starts jerking the wire around you just want to set a stick of TNT under it and yell FIRE IN THE HOLE!

Didn't know there was such a thing. You caused me to start researching. You may be right. Discovered there are two sizes of liner. Maybe we've been trying to run large diameter wire through a small liner. Maybe we've been running the wire in the wrong groove too. Next time I'm over at his house messing around I'm gonna have to check it out.

Just another pitfall of being a novice at something.

I try not to burden myself with things I absolutely don't have to know. lol!

The darn thing worked well enough for me to do the limited welding I had to do, but it made my marginal welds even more so.
