Didnt see the dish for spare wheel, you got something else in mind for it ?
see the post on works mig aload of expensive crap!
ie wont weld now below 100amps and then just splaters and you try welding sheet steel with 100amp+..
...just bought a new mig on line..when it turns up will sort that issue!!but gonna make it rather bigger than standard..
