I have the occasional need to do 1/2" aluminum which normally I mig weld. But I want to tig, not mig. So I'm looking to be in the 250 amp range and also, with a tig this size I can arc weld in DC rather than using my old buzz box which is A/C only. But I also need the low end, not because I'm welding beer cans or razor blades, rather because I do a lot of sheet metal work, from about 22 awg on up. I'm savin my pennies, when I'm ready to pull the trigger I'll give you guys a call.

Thanks,
