After taking well over an hour to fabricate and install a fix for my lawn
mower last weekend, I realized that the repair would have taken about 5
minutes if I was set up for welding.  Might prove handy on the Tiger, too.

So I'm looking for some wisdom here.  I'm thinking arc welding, so I won't
have to worry about refilling tanks, etc.  I'm not thinking of welding
suspension parts or anything really heavy.  Just sheet metal, and the
occasional bracket.

Looking in a few catalogs, it looks like I could get a reasonable set up for a
couple hundred dollars new, but I'm not sure what I need.  I'll probably just
watch for something to turn up in the local want ads once I figure out my
needs.

The question is, for my anticipated use, what sort of features, Amps, or
whatever, should I be looking for?
