In need of a large single phase mig...........

Either to borrow or buy as my arc welders on the way out (noticed a rather prominent new oil leak in the base after it had sat for a bit)

It'd probably have rusted away about 30 years ago too

i want to pickup one of those 180+ oxford bantams

the_wolf · Jul 19, 2014

Should have bought the one I had

Dr_evil · Jul 19, 2014

thats what mine is, I just cant be arsed fixing it at the minute, pinhole leak somewhere in the base

Eventually it'll get a new base welded on but right now I don't have the inclination to empty the oil, clean it all up and weld a new sheet to the base

one you had was far too small for me and it was a clarke, don't want one of them again

the_wolf · Jul 19, 2014

You're welding a land rover chassis, not a battleship

Dr_evil · Jul 19, 2014

I've welded a chassis with a clarke before.......it didn't have the legs to weld all day without overheating

the_wolf · Jul 19, 2014

Should get one with a decent duty cycle then

What model and how old was it?

you'd probably want 400quid for one

evil, do you use the proper transformer oil or do you bung in engine oil?
