I don't anything about the welder, usual disclaimers, yadda yadda yadda, could pe a complete POS, could be a steal.

welders last forever...miller is great stuff.

this 300 is a good machine and with the right hands will result in high quality welds.

unless you are doing aerospace projects you really don't need anything newer.

the torch cooler is cool I wish I had one...... at this price it won't last long

before investing in a welder of that size for home use, make sure your electric panel is up to snuff.

i have a co-worker who got a great deal on a Miller Econo-Tig only to find that he required $2000 rewire of his garage.

personally, unless you are wanting to weld magnesium or aluminum i'd save my clam-cakes for a nifty Miller Maxstar. portable and doesn't take up a lot of real estate.

a cutting torch attachment. I got a good deal on a very lightly used unit (basically new). From the specs it should do everything I need, the cutting torch attachment is a huge bonus for me.

Now all I need is to learn how to TIG, having something that weighs 40 lbs rather than 340 lbs is certainly was the key difference to me.

I have a Miller squarewave 180 tig and a Miller Dynasty200 inverted tig. Both work great. All I needed was a 70amp fuse for the millers.
