      I have my sights set on a Thermadyne TS160 i believeis the model its thier 110 tig/stick with high freq so you can weld aluminum.
      Honestly I have Astro Pneumatic 110 mig welder and it makes great welds. Its simple and it will run gas or gasless(flux core is messy it gives off splatter.
      honestly if you spend more than $1000 on a USED unit (you have no protection under the purchasing of it) your gonna get burned if your unlucky.
      Honestly a small hand carryable 110 mig and a similar unit in tig or even maybe step up to a 220 tig in portable form, then find someone with a Lincoln 225 AC/DC stick welder and buy a tig torch and a converter box and getting one that can do more than just hi frq will pay off more.
      Get a water cooled tig torch for the big rig and figure on having $10k in the mess but be able to weld anything in your shop pretty much.
      But honestly I think Ill find a decent TIG upgrade the torch/controls and cooling and be happy.
      also thats a little high on price.
