Welders???

[Bryce'sStang]

Was looking at buying a Millermatic 210 from Toll Welding.. First are these good welders?? and where else could I look to see if I can get a better deal???

Yes those are good welders. I have had great luck with Millers, and know several people with the same welder who have had excellent luck as well. That is a good all around welder, and is big enough to do frame work as well. As for where to get one, check Oxygen Service on Pierce Butler in St. Paul. They usually have good deals.

I perfer Lincoln, I have had my welder for over 2 years never down and I weld Everyday mon-fri and our millers were always down, but if you do decide to go miller Mo2 is a good place

I have a Miller, no problems in last 8 years. You would be suprised what that little 120V welder can do! I dunno where the best place to shop is though.

I bought my Miller from St.Croix welding over in Hudson got a pretty good deal on it compared to anything I found in the state.

The 210 is awsome it is actully the predisesor to the 185. Wich any one who has used a 185 knows how nice they are.

[Iroc-Z]

Actully if you could find a nice used 185 that would save you some money. The main difference between the two is like on heat setting. The 210 has a better duty cycle but the 185 will do everything you want it to do.

A freind of mine has been doing alot of research on the very same welder (Millermatic 210). He was basically going to pull the trigger on one until he talked to some people that didnt like the new line of Millers. Basically he beleives the new ones are not as good as the older ones as far as durability.

He now has his eye on a Lincoln 215 that is very similar to the Miller 210. I have always been a fan of the old Millers, but sometimes change is not so good, but who knows.

Check out what Toll/Oxygen Service will quote you on some different models, then check out some online companys and see what kind of pricing you find. He found an ebay store selling Miller welders with Free Shipping and Tax free (out of state). Basically he is going to see if the local companies will match it.

I have the 210 and love it. I also run I aluminum spool gun with it, use it everyday no problems. Try Indiana Oxygen company on E-bay. I bought my tig from him for $900 under every one around here (minneapolis oxygen,TOll, and Airgas) with free shipping and no state taxes. Had it here in two days.
