If I feel the need to upgrade, I'll go to a 200A unit later...
$400 for this unit off Amazon.

From this, I'll probably go to a 200A TIG unit, since I want to concentrate more on the aluminum and SS stuff.
$1200 is a lot of bang for the buck!

Yeah, I know the hardcore "red" / "blue" guys are cringing, but I don't have $1000 and $2000 to drop on this kinda stuff.
I don't think I'll get serious - i.e. certified - anytime soon; got too much other things I gotta take care of, so it's hobbyist level right now.
I follow ChuckE2009 on YouTube, and he makes these Everlast units look really attractive...

Ted I think you will be fine with the Everlast units I would pick them over Lincoln anyway.
