I'm a long time stick welder and recently borrowed a Hobart Handler 150 MIG with .030 wire.. haven't done a whole lot with it, but seems to do OK.. I think I would like just a little more juice, maybe the 175..

I did do some test welds on 7/32' steel and cut them apart to examine and they look fine... This was with flux wire, understand using CO2/Argon results in even deeper penetration.. Going to hook the gas up and try that next..
