BVancamp22 Posted November 21, 2006 Share Posted November 21, 2006 Anyone know if there are any good deals out there for BF for welders? Harbor Freight has one for like 30% off but trying to find a much better deal for one. Hubby knows nothing about sale shopping, and I am clueless about tools. Anyone know of any? Thanks!

ardigmt Posted November 21, 2006 Share Posted November 21, 2006 do you know if he wants a mig or a tig welder? My husband is pretty knowledgeable about welders... I can ask him if you give me more info... how much do you want to spend? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wyattsshamrock Posted November 21, 2006 Share Posted November 21, 2006 first you need to find out what type of welding he will be doing. You maybe looking at something bigger than you need for just the hobby welder. ebay might be a place to start, has he mentioned a brand like miller or esab? Those are kinda expensive but you may be able to find something along the same lines. another place to check would be welding suppy stores exp. rental stores like national welders, or Neff that deal in commercial rental equipment. They have turnover just like rental cars and sell to the public. They can also be a wholesaler for new stuff. Millers website provides a side by side comparision of their welders in the different classes. but if you are not sure about tools this may be something you have to get the hubby involved in Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alimfp Posted November 21, 2006 Share Posted November 21, 2006 DH has been welding for over 15 years. Ditto the above, you need to find out what kind of welding he will be doing first and foremost. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
elena_398 Posted November 21, 2006 Share Posted November 21, 2006 My husband bought a welder last year at Home Depot. Different types so find out which he needs/wants. There are home depot coupons posted on here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
