Alloy welding. Looking at buying a TIG welder

[seq4x4]

Could anyone recommend a good cheap (i know those words dont go together) MIG?

my MIG is an italian brand called FEMA P215W, it was 1600 with a roll of wire, spare tips and a mask. i wouldnt go any cheaper than that. even then its stretching the friendship. the torch is ****, the feed is ****, its just ****. the only thing its good for is nice welds. lots of arc force and it keeps pumping out at full blast alll day everyday as long as i dont trigger a fuse and as long as the wire doesnt catch.

most tig's i've seen are 15amp sockets where as most around the house are 10amp... thats one big reason i havent bought one

I'll post up some of my work on Monday. If anyone needs any q's answered just ask me and I'll do my best to help.

Would love to see some aluminum tig work, been considering a tig for a while, it's good to get some positive feedback on affordable machines.
