I would like to buy my son and I a welder. Neither he nor I have welding experience so ease of learning is a factor. Budget is $500 max. I can buy a like new Lincoln PRO MIG 180 or a Lincoln 225 AC/DC TOMBSTONE for $500. Specs for mig are;
Input Power208/230/1/60 Rated Output208: 130A/17V/30% 230: 130A/20V/30% Input Current20A Output Range30-180A Solid Wire Size Range.025-.035 in. Cored Wire Size Range.030-.045 in. Wire Feed Speed Range50-500 ipm (1.3-12.7 m/min) Dimensions,14"H X 10.15"W X 18.6"D (H x W x D) Net Weight 66 Lbs Gas regulator included. No tank nor spool gun with it. They rate it up to 1/2" with flux core which is ample for our use but I don't know if that's single pass. I find most of what I hire welded and fabercated to be between 1/16th and 3/8ths.

How important do you find cleaner weld with gas shielding and capibility for aluminum (with optional spool gun)? Thanks in advance and hopfully I supplied enough info to alow meaningful opinions.
