Re:all you welders..question for ya
 

the links dont work...
a 20 amp circuit just means the welder pulls 20 amps so if you have a little breaker, you would need to put at least a 20 amp in or it will keep popping... I wouldnt worry about that.. cheap and easy to fix if needs be, but most garage outlets will be fine

Re:all you welders..question for ya
 

you have to cut and paste to get it work. anyway, you think i should go w/ the 100amp one instead of 80? hehehehe..think i'll go pick it up tomorrow

if your desicion is based on that price range this is a MUCH better welder for $199 - 88 amp (it will be strong enough for what you need)

http://www.homedepot.com/prel80/HDUS...tOID=100014760

that is what I would get for a cheap welder - it gives you expandability.. for about $100 you can convert to mig later, when you decide that a flux weld is way too ugly to be on your car

Re:all you welders..question for ya
 

hmm.. my link doesn't work either... just pull up www.homedepot.com and search for

Lincoln Electric
Lincoln Electric Weld-Pak HD Combination Wire-Feeder/Welder and Accessories
Model: #K2188-1
SKU: #599595
199.00

or go to tools > welding > wirefeedwelders and it is the top one

Re:all you welders..question for ya
 

i tried to do a search on it...and all i get is the $325 one :-[ anyway, i still don't know the difference between 100amp, 80amp and 88amp isn't it the more the better? the craftsman one is upgradable as well...
