Nice one mate! Well done. Another victory for the oval!

I had this. Ran a new earth and replaced the bulb connectors. No electric knowledge required to fix, and bulb holder are only a few quid off the bay of e. Simple fix buddy, don't worry! :)

went last year, was great! looking forward to it.

I'd like to see it, but I wont believe it till I see it!

Check the tires.... see if they're melted, what with how hot the motor is.

I like it. Don't like the "one life" rubbish. Always though LR's pr department was a bit desperate to try that one.

As i said, i really need a welder, so i'm hanging on to the SIP till the Sealey arrives. Then I'll happily take offers. :) However, I notice your at the other end of a very long country to me. Will it be worth the courier or the driving required for you?

I dont think it is anything to do with the duty cycle. The unit has an on board fan and work quite well at low ranges. The welder works well when welding very thin metal. But anything 0.8 and up, it only works for maybe 2 minuets tops before starting to stack and spit. It will do that even from...

Hmm ok cool. I'll look into this a bit further, but i think i might go with a sealey mightymig 150. Thanks for the info.

D'oh! I'm seeing sealey 150A's going for about £200. Is that going to have enough grunt as well? Mine seems like a bit of a toy one, and I'm ready to move on to the big boys toys... :)

Is this one any cop?

I have a SIP Migmate. I think its a 120. It was given to me so i cant complain too much. It welds fine for a few minuets, but then starts spitting and stacking the welds up with no penetration. I think its had it. Can anyone recommend a mig thats good but not going to break the bank, as money is...
