For all the noob welders...
Ive seen ALOT of post asking what welder should i buy and alot of pitiful manifolds.
1st off If you want Good quality fab work you cant go cheap, Miller or Lincoln is the way to go and your gonna have to spend money... my Miller mig $800, and my Miller Tig $2,200. Im just letting you know, dont buy a $200 off brand POS.
2ndly heres what these machines will do.

You sound like a pretentious ---- hole. The manifolds you see are from NOVICE hobby welders. You don't have to spend loads of money on a good welder to get good results. Metal prep, pipe fitment and techique have everything to do with it. Take your big dollar welder and fist yourself with it. Most of us can't see spending huge money for something they use on occasion.
Oh and sweet ****, I'm not the best welder, but I have seen far better than what you posted.

Re: For all the noob welders...
how are you trying to help people improve welding by saying that the work youve seen here sux and unless they have miller they cant possibly weld anything? all your going to do is discourage people. you really tryinh to tell me i cant weld a ------- muffler because i dont have a miller? you know how i know the welder i have works? i ------- bought it, ------- used it, it ------- worked, and it wasnt a ------- miller.

agreed and i think that the smily tools welders 30a for 599$ have proven to be a great welder on a buget dont diss other ppl for what they are trying to learn and every ones right this is hmt. and alot of ppl dont have ---- louds of cash to dump 2grand on a tig if they did they would prolly just buy a nice turbo kit that comes with a nice manifold
