    In high school we were taught Arc Welding.
    I guess Mig is an evolution of it.
    I'm a truck driver.
    But long to one day work on an old car.
    Thanks for education.

    Thank you Rachel for the review! You are such a great teacher and an amazing Welder/Metal Fabricator. It would be so cool if you offered live coarse training via video feed, but I don't know how well that would work. You would be an awesome instructor. I would sign up 😊 Thank you again for all that you do.

  • @fonhollohan2908

    flux core is a more dirty weld its requires more clean up that's all. The weld itself is not dirty and its handy where as you don't need gas, because the flux is in the wire itself. It's great for small jobs out in the field. I've had a little flux core for decades for around the house. I onced fabricated and welded up a boat trailer with it. So its not bad for the price. I have mine set up on a 20 amp breaker and it never trips the breaker, if you plug it into a 15 amp breaker it will trip quite often.

    The 110 volt welders are ok for sheet metal but that’s it.
    When I was production welding we used Anti Spatter MIG Nozzle Dip to keep the tip clean.
    Curious why I don’t see it used nowadays.
    I still use it all the time.
    What’s up with the Viking build? Looking forward to seeing it progress.
    Luv your channel.👍👍

    • @wirefeed3419
      @wirefeed3419 6 місяців тому +4

      You’re not wrong, always buy the best welder you can afford. The fact is some people interested or wanting to do some welding especially a young student, $250.00 is much more affordable than $600.00 -$1000, and $2500.00 is way out of reach. It is a cheap welder, has limitations, I would have loved to have this option many years ago. This could make a project possible or better yet kick start a career for some girl or guy.
      A Decent review, but should have clarified the tripping of the breaker is NOT the welders fault, it is her shop and what she has running on the 110 volt circuit she is plugged into for the demo .

    Please take this only as it’s intended - constructive criticism.
    I watched 3 other reviews on this welder and yours was by far the worst.
    Audio quality horrendous. Recording in a hard surfaced room with nothing to absorb sound creates echos which make vocal quality very bad. Not have a lavalier mic means you are rarely addressing the mic, so even with sound turned all the way up it’s almost impossible to understand what you are saying. Not taking the time to set up for closeups means viewers have no idea what’s happening, both in assembly/setup and actual execution.
    I won’t be watching any other of your videos because there are many others out there actually putting in the effort to produce quality videos from which I can learn.
    I recommend you watch Donyboy73 evaluating this same machine to see what I’m talking about.
