Alrighty guys, I'm brand new to this board and have a big decision to make. I'm faced with the question of which welder to buy - the MM 212 or the 180. I'm going to be building Jeeps with it, mostly welding bumpers, suspension components, and some sheet metal but not much at all. I've been building a Jeep for a guy and my payment for my work is basically a welder. He knows what they cost and I've now got the P.O. for either a 212 or a 180 plus tank, fill, wire etc.
I've noticed that the 212 has 7 "taps" in voltage regulation - would infinite be much better? Autoset, is there an autoset option on the 212 that is out now? I'm not too worried about space in the garage that each machine would take up so size isn't an issue.
Any opinions welcome.
I think I can get better after some practice with my own machine:
