 A co-worker is selling this.  I might jump on it...Lincoln AC225c Designed for hobby and general home use. Max Output 225 amps. Duty Cycle Rated 20 Max 10 Like new, Never Used. Comes with helmet & sticks. --$80 I thought I might put it before the panel for some opinions.

 Seems like a nice unit:http://www.mylincolnelectric.com/Catalog/equipmentdatasheet.asp?p=2492 Expect the helmet it comes with to be a toy. I bought a similar unit and the helmet is just barely good enough for a bystander to watch you, you certainly wouldn't want to use it while welding, you have to hold it to your face.    I wish I never bought my stick welder, actually, I wish I just got a MIG welder in the first place. ------------------ '70 Mustang Mach 1 - '70 Mustang Convertible - '72 Mustang Sprint - '94 F-150
