I have never welded before but I have to many ideas don’t even know how to set it up and your video gave me a big head start. Know my learning process will be easier
would reccomend take an intro to welding class
I bought one when they first hit the market. I’ve been very pleased with all aspects of its operation. The auto set is very close on its settings. I would think it would be great for new welders to learn with
This was a very helpful review. The 210 seems like a nice compact machine with good functionality. Thank you.
I have one and I could hug it I love it so much. It’s a killer machine.
I'd like to see how you set up the spool gun for aluminum
ER7018 is typically ran in DCEP Reverse polarity.
Sorry, I had to stop the video when you said 7018 is usually run electrode negative. It is not. It is usually run electrode positive which is reverse polarity.
I agree with you it doesn’t really work with reverse polarity
Great review!
Man I can’t figure out how to use mine. 🤦🏼♂️ completely new to hobby wielding . I’ll need one of my welder buddies to walk me through.
Only thing I don't like: it does not support 0.30 flux core, also the TIG connector should come installed from factory. Mine after 3-4 months of use, the 240 volt cable separated from the connector. Still works but you can see the three wires inside. Lincoln quickly sent me a replacement. Other than the flux core (0.30) issue, is a great machine. Update: the new Lincoln 215 MPi which is the replacement for this one, does comes with the TIG kit installed from the factory. Still, does not automatically runs 0.30 flux core wire, which is not a big deal after all.
I have one and it has wire feed problems. Also, it does not weld sheet metal very well. I had a Miller Matic 135 for many years before this machine. I lost the Miller in a flood. Never had a problem with the Miller and it welded sheet metal great. I regret buying this machine.
What issues are you having with sheet metal?
He was the issue lol.
Damn! I want me one of those 210 MPs!
Great review. Wondering if you can describe the construction of your welding table. What's on the top? Thanks.
Thanks! We bought the table over 25 years ago! So as to it's construction... not sure but it's made of a painted metal top and iron legs. We used it as a routing table in the past and the hole in the center allows for pass through. Hope that helps
Good info.
is the fan always on?
Hi experts I would like to weld aluminum square tubing 1 x 36-inch, would this machine capable of doing so? Also can I plug this in a regular wall plug at my house ? Do I need to plug it in the gas tank argon etc ? Very newbie at this stuff. Thank you
I believe you will need argon plus the spool gun.
@@jvazquez53 thank you sir
I dont think many beginner welders are dropping qlmost 3 grand for a welder
Apenas fui a la tienda y empleado me dijo que ese modelo será descontinuado porque salió el nuevo 215mp
why my breaker keeps popping from the back of the welder?
Have you contacted Lincoln?
Nice Omega Speedmaster. 👍
How much are these?
Around $1,500 aprox.
Did You get a nice arc burn on your bare arms there? 🤣
Thanks! You might be served by using a lapel mic or speaking louder.
The title of this video should be "Using the 210 MP welder very briefly." This ain't no review.
Yeah normally i really like lincoln but the longevity of this machine is dogs**** less then 100 working hours and the pcb burn out a $600 part on a 2k machine is absolutely ridiculous ... after replacing it 20 hours more and the front panel circuit board burned out which is $400 worst yet lincoln does not honor their warranty by hours but years owned meaning you catch the cost after throwing this machine in the trash i run an old sa200 now and an azzuno cheap Amazon welder ( it has 400 hours on it now and still burning) i paid $300 for it
I prefer the old mechanical switches, and heavier equipment. Those display screens and micro chips wont last very long. It all look's too fragile and feels like Chinese plastic.
GET A MIC.
The way they did the tig on this unit is unbelievable 👎
Good Information, But really, if you want to do these kind of videos Please figure out your Audio... The worse audio I've heard in a video like this. Step up your game....
