Geez Ned, if you would have bought the welder first we could have all
avoided the controversy on the list, patch v. weld :).
I got a Harbor Freight unit a year or so ago, I think pretty much the same
one, but has the potential for gas conversion. I could never get the fine
hand movement down for stick welding, wire feed is easier.
Make sure you get a little lighter eye shield for the welding helmet, as the
wire feed will not be as bright as a stick weld and you won't be able to see
very well if you use a shield designed for stick or gas welding.
