Was looking before xmas and found a good one on here but circumstance meant i couldn't complete the purchase, so any one got one going. Ideally with Gas bottle included

Have you tried www.mig-welding.co.uk/forum/index.php there is usually someone who has one for sale.

What sort of thickness are you planning to use it for ? If it's for stuff less than 2mm you
can have my old (very, 20 odd yo) Clarke 120e. It used to do 3-4 mm when new but no longer
so I've bought a new 15a jobbie.
If the old one is any use you can have it if you collect. I can give you a tiny disposable
bottle too.

Thanks for the offer, but need something pretty decent, 150amp +

I replaced the aforementioned 120e with a Clarke 160TM (150amp) and am very pleased
so far.

Myke2463 mentioned below the MIG forum and there is a member there called Weldequip (Steve)
who does deals for other members. For the same price as MAchineMart he could supply delivered with 5kg wire.

However, I waited till a MM vat free day and did better again

Thanks, got a bit of a bargain on ebay, picked up a snap on 2135 AND an SP Arc welder package for £200!!
