I bought this mig welder to restore a classic mini. It’s been great. Works perfectly. Super value. But the short cables are pain

[@SeanBZA]

Light enough though, you can just about put it on your back and run with only a long power cord.

[@robertdebusk6157]

Nice little welder. Would be just right for any home workshop, especially if you don't want to fool around with a gas bottle. Take Care and Stay Safe. Bob

Little welder does a great job, great review John, keep'um coming.

[@jonsworkshop]

Good results over the range John for a little set. I have a SIP 130 migmate, which is the grandad of this set, it weighs about 30kg lol. Cheers, Jon

[@stevemcevoy5628]

Been thinking of buying one of these but wasn't shure how it would weld the thin sheet metal but you've covered everything I have made my mind up thanks to your excellent video thanks 👍👍👍👍👍

[@carlwilson1772]

Great welder and nicely reviewed.

[@BensWorkshop]

What a great 25 minutes of education!

Thanks John

Looks like a good little hobby MIG. The C02 mode would be handy when using life expired fire extinguishers lol "It looks quite innocent... but this is like a grenade waiting to go off!" LOLOL Love that bit. W have strapping machines at work which are the same and you basically have to scrap the whole reel once it has gone and they are quite expensive so need "disappearing" quick before management spots you!

[@tosselton291]

Nice little welder! You know what it needs though ... if your out and about welding a removable box on the back of it could hold a extra spool of wire.

[@altrocious]

Great video.. cheers. Which would you go for. The Sip or the vevor?

[@tonysheerness2427]

I bought a hobby mig welder 13 years ago and a chocolate tea pot would have been better. Sometimes cheap tools put you off a hobby as it frustrates you, the worst are the entry level 6 inch grinder/wire brush motors where as soon as you put anything against them they stop turning. The technology of small welders has improved and this one looks like a little gem. What is the maximum thickness of metal it can weld, or can you weld any thickness by layering welds?

[@BedsitBob]

I haven't done any welding in years, but I used to be able to do a passable MIG weld. Is flux cored welding easier/harder/the same, as gas MIG?

[@doubleboost]

No harder just different Gas mig is easier to see as you are going forward

[@jimsvideos7201]

New camera there? The picture looks particularly sharp.

[@SeanBZA]

Yes new camera, the old one died on him a few weeks ago.

[@fulf]

Hard wirred torch is a big no for me. I dont know abaout this machine but i have used hardwiered machines in the past (over 10 years ago now) And they got an oring in the handle for the gas stop and not a solenoid in the machine. So they tend to leek.

[@BensWorkshop]

BTW, you did forget the link to where to buy them from.

Could this be powered by a 2000 kwatt petrol generator

[@snowflakemelter1172]

No chance.

[@markirish7599]

@@snowflakemelter1172 could any welder be run from 2 kwatt petrol generator

[@snowflakemelter1172]

@@markirish7599 nope. 5 kw minimum for thin stuff.

[@jimsvideos7201]

It couldn't be too hard to build a holder for a larger spool if the bigger spools are meaningfully cheaper too.

[@SeanBZA]

Bigger spools are cheaper, but it is easy to just get one or two of the small spools, and when empty use a large spool to refill them. Just have to make a jig that holds the big spool with tension, and a place for the small spool that allows you to use a speed controlled drill, plus a leather gloved hand, to wind the wire evenly on and fill up the entire small reel.
