I've been using one of these for the past 11 months: http://www.screwfix....MIG-Welder-150A

Works a treat, and at that price you just can't argue!!!

You can use it with or without gas.

Iv'e got the slightly smaller version the 135TE and its been fine, plenty enough power for anything to do with Mini's and also the opposite way for low power welding panels etc.
