I beg to differ...

Lincoln Pro Mig 135... Its a small but it does the job.....

Ok its easier with better results with a TIG. I have a Lincoln 135 too. I'll stick to the TIG.

DOn't go with MIG, learn the art of TIG. Welds are stronger and after you become fluent in TIG the welds look a lot better too.
