I'd be interested in the list as well. Would be nice to know what kind of
mat'l you want to weld and what type of welder you're looking for.
i'm retired
just look'n to weld steel at home
a stick welder
for about 20 years i was attached at the hip to a lincoln stovepipe
i've tried a couple of the cheap inverters and they are better than noth'n
just barely
i know have'n a motor-generator unit at home is out of the question
but surely something comes close
I recall we got an inexpensive Miller welder for the machine shop about 10
years ago and one of the guru-techs (ie years of fab experience) used it
and thought it was darn right excellent when compared to a more expensive
MIller (probably syncrowave). At least when you looked at the price.
Others raved about it as well... (I had no clue... haha).
I think it was
https://www.millerwelds.com/equipment/welders/tig-gtaw/diversion-180-tig-welder-m00337,
however, the unit I recall looked more like the $5k unit on the miller
website w/ the exception we definitely paid about 3K for the version we got
(and didn't get a 5k welder for 3k). We probably paid about list price for
it...
That being said, there are other brands for much less $$. I think I read
that everlast was a decent 'less expensive' welder and on amazon they have
several models. However, I have not used one and you'd have to hear from
someone who knows better than I do.
