i am starting to work on my first lowrider and i wanted to know if any of you have had experience with this kind of welder. could i reinforce my frame with it? it says that it welds upto 1/4'' steel.

This type of welder would be good for lighter stuff. Body work and light fabrication jobs. You could probly build your rack with it and thats about it. For re-enforcing you need a heavier duty welder.Like a Miller. It is better to use the sheilding gas too. The flux stuff is ok but I would'nt try to re-enforce with it. For a low cost alternative. You can get a lincoln arc welder new for around $200. . I've been using mine for about 6 years with no problems. I've welded stuff well over 1" thick

Yo I think you can get that welder cheaper on harborfreight.com. I dont doubt anyone skills on here but just about all gasless welders weld nasty. Gas is half the secret of welding sheetmetal if thats what your doing.
