Really it depends on how much you've got to spend.
Clarke welders are good for hobby use, look for a mig welder with a min current of 30amp,some clarkes will go down to 25amps.
Don't be tempted by the ultra cheapo silverline/wolf things they usually have a mini current of 40 amp, you will just be blowing holes.
Allow for a decent auto mask and depending on how much you've got to do a big bottle of gas, not the the disposables.
If you have a gander over on
