The Stovebolt Site Forums The Shop Area The Tool Chest Spot Welder from Harbor Freight

Big 49 - I am no sure what name or model. But they have a 110 and a 220 spot welder. I bought the 220V and its great.

I also have the $99 set of torches and they are awesome. Although I am not sure I can get parts for it, the regulators are good the cutting torch is great, easily cuts 5/8" plate (as big as I have tried). You can't beat it for the price. Of course you have to spend a few hundred to get a set of tanks but still the cost savings is huge and the quality is equal.

I also have a $99 flux core welder I bought on sale. Its not so great. But it is worth $99. Its 110V and I wanted something quick and easy. But I wouldn't recomend it.

I use a miller tig 250 about $4000 and a miller mig about $2500. So when it comes to bulk welding, I am not into the Harbor frieght stuff. But the torches and spot welder I have are as good as I have seen with any name.

One note, when I bought the $99 mig, they offered 2 warrenties. I bought 15months for $12. If the unit fails in 15 months I can take it back to the store and they will replace it with a new one. That deal is pretty hard to beat.
