I bought a Lincoln MiG welder years ago ( a 175 T, I believe) after doing a lot of research. It was pricey at the time, but buy once, cry once. Ive been really happy with it and would recommend lincoln to anyone. I don’t always go with name brands ( like Hayward pool products, they suck, expensive with short warranties, buy Anything else ) but with Lincoln, you can’t go wrong. I want TIG, ( MIG has its purpose but TIG just gives more control needed for some jobs) and the Lincoln is really expensive, but this video kind of proves you do get what you pay for.

I think the channel can benefit greatly from some subject matter experts like Joe. Having the raw test data is a really good thing, however, having the thoughts and input from the experts can provide Insight that may not be measurable. Well done guys!

Thanks Joe!! As a welding engineer, this was an excellent video comparing cheap welders to each other. Another test I would recommend doing for the MIG video would be welding for at least 4hrs with the welder at the highest settings. Some of those cheap welders give up after 2hrs of use with high current because their electronics are not meant to sustain high current for more than a few minutes at a time. Please do not waste the money on tool truck welders. They are rebranded Lincoln or Miller welders, with less features and less knowledgeable people to help troubleshoot them.

I have multiple large machines and have been a welder for over 35 years and I am shocked how well that little deko has performed.

Thanks Joe for your professional help with this test. Todd, thank you for just solidifying yet again the validity of your channel. Your skills as a fabricator and designer are “very impressive” with all of your test jigs you fashion. But even with that, it is also very impressive to see you know when your limitations might hinder results. So instead of being to prideful and doing it yourself you call in an expert. Thanks for keeping this channel true and factual!

Those ~$100 welders are getting surprisingly good for light-duty jobs.

For hobby welding as long as you keep your expectations realistic some of them small welders would do for around the house. You're just not pipelining with one of them. But for slapping stuff together in the garden or what have you it's fine. Keep your runs under 3 minutes. You can do a lot with eighth inch thick steel. Run thinner electrodes. That sort of thing.

Good thorough test. It's worth mentioning that the clamp meter has to be capable of measuring DC current with the clamp as many only measure AC current. Thankfully the DC clamp meters are much more common now.

Yeah, the cheapest clamp meters you can find only do AC... I learned that by impulse buying my first cheap little clamp meter.

Thanks to Joe for providing his input on these welding tests! And even though I am not a welder at all, I'd love to see some comparisons of different types of welders, too! This channel is a fantastic resource. Whenever I need to purchase anything - hand tools, power tools, adhesives, pretty much anything - one of my first steps is checking whether Project Farm has a relevant video. TL;DR: thanks, and maybe someday I'll find a topic you haven't covered that I can suggest you test haha

@@ProjectFarm I second the TIG welding comparison, but also MIG welding. All the processes have differences and separate use cases and I'd love to see how different machines stack up. If you do another welder comparison, can you also include a higher end (like the Lincoln in this video) used welder? It's not uncommon to see used welders in the field and some people swear that older used welders (from reputable brands) can be just as good if not better than their newer, younger counterparts.
