I got one of these:
http://www.screwfix....MIG-Welder-150A
Cost me only £107, but it has gone back up to normal price now.
A nice bit of kit

Just been on the mig-weld site but cant find any shop or anything for weldequip (apart from private messaging him) and no location. Do you know where he is and if he has a shop (eg ebay)?

Machine mart are good for welding supplies and accesories.
Clarke welders are perfect for diy use, i've got a 151 too. Really good bit of kit.
