I am in the market to buy a new tig welder and plasma cutter hopefully all in one unit so that I can do some mods to my bike and go kart.....I have spoken to some of the bigger companies like lincoln,miller,harbor freight and they are a little to expensive for me at the time so I was wondering if anyone had any advice on where to look for some affordable but reliable welding companies

LMAO! Big companies like Miller, Lincoln and.....HARBOR FREIGHT? if H/F is too expensive then you might want to hang up the reins right now, they dont get any cheaper. But I wouldnt try to weld with a H/F welder on something that my life depends on.

besides the cost of the machine you also have to have the proper electric service to run it. With a decent tig you will need a dedicated 80amp breaker @ 220v you cant just plug it into your dryer or stove outlet. well you could if you only used it a half power or wanna reset the breaker every 10 seconds
