Doing a little early spring cleaning and realizing I will never need these again (famous last words)...

I bought these to make 2 trailer tire racks back in 2004. Only a few other small projects after that, so overall little use.

Hobart Handler 140 mig welder. Runs on 120v, though you will need a 25 or 30 amp circuit to run on full power. I was able to weld my tire rack from square tubing and weld some additional D rings onto my trailer on a standard 20 amp circuit. Includes Smith gas regulator, welding gloves, nozzle gel, and comes loaded with flux-core wire. $200

Harbor Freight 14" cut-off/chop saw. Comes with a few abrasive blades for cutting metal. $20.

Pick up in Potomac or Gaithersburg MD.

Is the welder close enough for me to still borrow it?

Should have just bucked up and bought it. Smoking deal on a good machine.

As Jerome knows, I very strongly considered it, but due to current issues at my home I'm not adding anything that large. Also (as Jerome also knows) Ben and I wired the garage for 240V 55A, so might hold out for a different machine. But I appreciate the years of help from Jerome with this and so many other things!!

Funny thing. I have the Miller version of the Hobart 120 I also have a Millermatic 251. 95% of my MiG work is with the 120. Only pull out the 251 for the thick Mig work.
Passed up on not having to borrow someone else’s machine for what amounts to the wine tab at a couples dinner.
