    New welder for me :)

    Well, I just got done ordering a new Millermatic DVI. I'm pretty stoked, so when it comes I'll let you guys know what its like. I know some of you don't like it, but I think it'll work cool for me, so I can take it to the track or use it in the shop.

    Kyle,

    It all boils down to how you plan to use it. If its right for you then go for it. Its your $$. Good luck and let us know how it performs.

    Thanks a lot guys....I'm sure it'll be great for me, and I am looking forward to recieving it. the reason I like it is due to the fact that I can use it in 110v outlets or a 220v outlet

    If it is what you need and want then it's the right purchase for you. Getting something new is always cool, I can't really say if I didn't already have a MM210 that I wouldn't be interested in this one. It has some interesting features for sure, for just one thing a MM175-180 with taps (dial spinners pile on here)....that alone seems cool to me.....be sure to let us now what you think when you have some time on it.

    well, I went down to west air today and spent about $150 on a bottle and some wire....and some other fun stuff. the sales dude talked me into a 200 miller welding helmet. Now I am ready for the arrival of the beast.
