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

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

Model: #K2188-1
SKU: #599595
199.00

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...
