Space is not an issue but budget might be. In this year alone I bought a 25hp diesel tractor, resided my two story house and put up roughly 400 ft of vinyl fence. Just a few months ago I had been eyeballing the I-MIG 250p but I ended up buying a Hobart Ironman 230 from a local dealer who was closing up shop for what I think was a great deal ($900 with spool gun). Needless to say, Im feeling pretty poor right now. I do all my own work so I can usually justify buying a tool to complete a project rather then rent or pay someone else to do it. However, right now my wallet is telling me to not spend anymore money but my brain is saying take the upgrade for $400 and be happy with it. I dont weld/cut daily because I make my living programming web applications for the state. But when I do get around to using my machines its usually to their full potential.

I think ill sleep on it..
