More than expected,

September 17, 2010

By birddog2008

from San Antonio, TX

"Im a CWI and the flux core process is quickly catching on as more productive and just as versitile as SMAW. I purchased this item with scepticism and after running the entire factory spool of .030 wire through it, there is no doubt that this welder is just as superior as a tripple priced Lincoln or Miller. In windy (10mph aprox.) conditions I could run a bead and not get any porosity which I cant say about some welders using stick. I do however, have a down side to this welder. With GMAW (MIG) and FCAW (Flux Core) you manipulate the heat imput with the arc length, and this machine only has enough heat for a weave style bead to keep an acceptable weld reinforcment profile. In my oppinion if you plan on welding any grove weld in 3/16 or thicker base metals put it on setting 2 and slow the wire speed to 4 and make a nice weld puddle and you will have decent root passes. Other than that be patient and experiment with the machine to fine the sweet spots for your base metal thickness."

Excellant welder,

September 1, 2010

By wizyrdofoz

from Meadowview, Va.

"I am a certified all position pressure vessel welder for over 25 years and have owned many welders. I currently have a 220v Mig and Tig gas welder. I bought this Northern Tool 110v Mig welder so I wouldn't have to lug my 550 lb. welder out for small jobs. My Son and I have started building Tattoo machines. The 220v welder was too big to weld the smaller Gauge 1018 HRP&O steel we make the frames with. We decided to try this welder and were skeptical at first. After practicing on a few pieces of scrap to learn the characteristics of this welder we started welding our first Tattoo frame. It turned out absolutely flawless. We have built over 50 frames since our purchase without a single mishap. We also used it on a trailer repair outside and the flux core wire worked great in the light breeze that would have caused havoc on my 220v gas welder. This little welder lays down a "stack of dimes" Just like my large gas welder at just a little more cost than a roll of wire for my large welder. Plus it consumes so much less power. We have welded some 3/8" steel with excellant results with this Northern Tool welder. We also don't have to worry about running out of shielding gas while welding due to the flux-core wire. This Northern Tool welder is excellant and I would recommend it to anyone who needs a welder that is portable, reliable and is easy to operate yet will weld thicker steel when necessary. We are thinking of buying another so we don't argue about who gets to use it and increase productivity. Buy one, you won't be dissappointed."

great value intro welder,

August 31, 2010

By jprice

from Marietta, GA

"Being completely new to welding, it took some time to be able to learn to lay a bead (albeit an ugly, lumpy bead) with this welder. But just being able to weld at all, after only messing around for a couple hours says it's pretty newbie friendly.

The only downsides to this welder is a lot of spatter and the fiddling with the feed speed to get it welding just right. Granted, that has nothing to do with this welder in particular, but is apparently a by-product of flux-core wire-feed welding in general.

On the plus side, the inexpensive price for a completely self-contained welding system (no gases needed), that will run from any household outlet, is pretty darn nice.
I'd give it 4.5 stars if they allowed half-stars."

Beginner,

August 31, 2010

By BMiles

from Orlando, FL

"My son took at welding class in high school. He has the gift. My wife and I gave him this welder for his 16th birthday. This welder was a blessing to his skills. It is compact and very user friendly. He uses this welder 6-7 times per week, from fixing the family grill to helping a buddy with a broken shifter on an off road jeep. If you want to begin welding or need a welder in the garage for a project, we would recommend this unit."

Good for the first timer and for the money,

August 30, 2010

By iceA

from Fairhope, AL

"I purchased this welder b/c it was all I could afford at the time. I was impressed with what I got for my money. I also wasn't a very experience welder and it proved to be managable. I have used this welder for several years with no problems and would def recommend for a tight budget or an inexperienced welder. Great for around the house welding jobs because of the price. I used it for my small fence company and welded many aluminum gate frames with it. Very happy!"

FCAW is the way to go,

August 30, 2010

By nismo06

from Milner,Ga.

"I think that this welder,the performance it delivers is a great product.What I'm trying to say is it performs flawlessly. The overall rating only goes to 5 stars, when it really should've been up to 10 stars.You're able to weld up to 3/16th mild steel, but, if you V-Groove 1/4 inch mild steel and know how to do multiple-passes it can be done. I personally know this because I own this welder."

Great little welder,

August 30, 2010

By Machiner

from Tennessee

"I took this welder out of the box. I read the instructions, and set it up following the instructions, tried it on scrap metal, and it worked great with only a very minor adjustment. Wire feed works great, no slipping or binding of the wire, and the weld looked great, after I practiced for a few minutes to get the feel of it."

With the .030 wire it really works. Easy to set up and even came with 1 # of wire to use."

Tough lil welder,

August 30, 2010

By Gemyrae

from Texas

"I am an amature welder. I have assisted my father and my older brother in thousands of miles of welding, but never welded myself, that is until my wife purchased this welder for me for my birthday. My father warned me of 110v welders stating that they are not big enough to get the job done. My older brother warned me tbout 110v welders stating that I would not be happy with it. They were both wrong ! This welder does exactly what it states, and then some. After reading the instructins, putting the welder together, and watching a few hours of welding instructions on you tube, I was welding in no time. My first project is building my daugter a gokart and I'm 75% completed with it. I couldn't be happier with my purchase and I would recommend this to anyone that wants to learn how to weld and or somone that wants/needs a good little welder for around the house. Granted, this welder is not the biggest and badest of them all, but it suits me perfectly."
