So I have a Hobart Handler 140, the older 4 voltage setting version, it wasn't running so great last time I used it, liner in the gun is likely worn, bought a new gun and a new Victor regulator, haven't put them on. It sits in my shed, so the spool in it could be degraded.
I'm thinking I want a Miller 211, I always have, and it's got more capability. My question is do I want the previous version (a manly looking thing) or the new and improved smaller, lighter version. GO! |

The more expensive compact millers like the Maxstar, and Dynasty lines kick ass. They are DC constant current Stick/Tig boxes though. Some old timers don't like them and like a machine they have to move around with a fork lift. I love them.
My dad Boughy a Lincoln 210 multi process machine. Him and my brother are very happy with it. It will do anything a home welder will ant to and more. The price is hard to beat. I burn lots of wire with a Miller 252, it is nice but I got really spoiled by the industrial power sources and double roller fed wire feeders at my last job. |

Then brush the slag and using 1/8" 7018 on fill and cap with the same DIG setting? I was shocked. But totally different with 7014. |
