Kind of makes it a chore to weld that cowl back in ehh....

...one of them is stationary and you have to move the part you are welding around the spot welder...

I guess i am trying to get feedback on the two readily available units.
The first unit says it will weld up to 16 gauge steel. I think our cars have 18??, is that correct??
1. http://www.eastwoodco.com/jump.jsp?i...emType=PRODUCT
The second unit says it will handle up to 1/8" or i believe 10 gauge bare steel. correct me if i am wrong on the conversion.
2. http://www.eastwoodco.com/jump.jsp?i...emType=PRODUCT
I've already purchased the number 1 unit, but i havent had a chance to check it out yet because all i have is a MIG welder. I'm going to run out and buy a cheap arc welder today and perhaps one of the other spot welders if you all think they are worth a ___
Thanks

KStang...I wish I had the good fortune you have had with Harbor Freight. I have bought 2 nail guns (for use in my side job), a pad sander, and a die grinder from them. All worked well at first then went down the tubes. I had trouble getting any satisfaction from Harbor Freight when things went bad. If price is a major issue I would go to Northern Tool. They are within 5% of Harbor Freight on most items and are much easier to deal with.
Just my experience. If you have a Harbor Freight that treats you well...by all means stick with them. I just have not had much luck.
