EDIT:

Well I looked around and found this christmas special, ended up winning this welder, $182.50 normally they are alot more as you can see by his other sales

Once this thing comes in, I'll be going out and renting out a bottle to use for Argon, then the practice welding begins, hopefully by spring I will get good enough to make myself a nice manifold, charge piping and exhaust, and offcourse a cart for the welder and bottle.

Yeah I wanna get a Smiley, but I dont know where to find a decent one for a decent price, my plans for this spring are:

Manifold, Roll bar and misc crap here and there if I need to. Besides, I think its time to start learning how to weld.

The two linked appear to be the same welder, but with the cheaper of the two also have a 40A plasma.
