what's your opinion on this bag

Looks pretty good, but does it have hip straps? That's pretty important for weight distribution

Speaking strictly from a prep standpoint, you're best off with a stick machine. Its the most versatile rig you could own, but it is the most difficult to learn. You can also hook a TIG torch to it and to fine welding that way.

You can also fabricobble a stick welder from a few car batteries and some jumper cables, which makes stick welding a valuable skill.

For pre-SHTF home welding, that rig looks perfect otherwise.

Ye but i also repair motorcycles and other things where you need to be able to cut some rusty part and weld a new one back on

thats why i wanted a mig

for bodywork

I use TIG for everything other than fit up. I use my mig to tack weld and fit parts together, then weld with TIG, especially sheet metal.

My semi-professional recommendation is to buy a TIG/Stick machine, then add a wirefeeder(MIG gun) later.

Buy once, cry once.

i mean

tig is really for precision welding no?

Precision as in keeping the bead consistent? no. Precision as in controlling the arc, the puddle, the penetration? yes.

ah

i dont know

i should have a budget of around 800/900 euros

so like 1000 dollars

The difficult part here is you're in Europe, I'm in YangGangLand.

I can't recommend my machines to you because they don't exist in your dystopia.
