You can get a Hobart from Sears that doesnt have a regulator for CO2 for $351.99.Thats a model 500549 without the gas regulator. I would get the hook up for CO2 which is a model 500550 which you can get from Sears for 460.49,but Amazon.com has them a lot cheaper at I think $372.00 and maybe free shipping. Plus there are other Lincoln welders for $299.99 at Sears with a CO2 hook up with them. After reading the description,the Hobart is a better welder according to their claims. Eastwood sells a 115 volt welder for 339.99 and it has a Tweco gun which you can get tips about anywhere for a Tweco gun.Also comes with a gas regulator so you can use CO2 with it. If it was me I would look at Craigs list and buy a 220 welder like a Lincoln,Hobart,Miller,and whatever else I could get with it,bottle,regulator,wire,tips,if possible.You will probably be a lot happier with the results.Of course you can weld thin stuff with one of those 115 volt welders.You would probably be better off getting one you can use flux core,hard wire and CO2 on.When you buy it all together like that its a lot cheaper than trying to buy it to go on your welder later.A regulator by its self is over 70 dollars from Sears.Flux core does work out in the wind though. Look long and hard and try and get as good of a name brand welder as you can.That 299 dollar deal for a Lincoln looks like the best deal that I saw.That flux core wire is costly.If you needed to do a lot of welding the hard wire and CO2 would be better.

Today's Featured Article - Listening to Your Tractor - by Curtis Von Fange. Years ago there was a TV show about a talking car. Unless you are from another planet, physically or otherwise, I don’t think our internal combustion buddies will talk and tell us their problems. But, on the other hand, there is a secret language that our mechanical companions readily do speak. It is an interesting form of communication that involves all the senses of the listener. In this series we are going to investigate and learn the basic rudimentary skills of understanding this lingo.
