I've yet to find something I cant stick together. I’ve been playing with my new LIncoln for a little over a year now, and I have been nothing but pleased.

We are not boilermakers - but do get to do some fairly heavy site work - now its become mostly stainless steel. I had an Old Hobart engine driven-stick welder which finally needed a major rebuild and was no longer up to our needs. We decided to scrap it in favor of a Miller Trailblazer - nothing too big - no diesel or anything. We tried a Lincoln welder at the time - and my welder thought it to be a bit rough and said it had inconsitent output. We like the Miller - but maybe what we need is a magazine like Consumer Reports to do unbiased tests of contractor tools. Good to hear that Lincoln is stepping up.
