Therefore, what I bought was, the venerable Miller Synchrowave 300. It's a BEAST of a reliable OLD unit that I see on ebay regularly for $1000. While a 300 amp machine, commonly listed as 3 phase, it's NOT, it's built and designed for everything from 220v single phase, to 575v three phase, doesn't matter. I've got mine on a simple 40amp 220v breaker and weld 1/8 stainless at 150 amps with no problem. Just haven't tried larger stuff yet. Insofar as reliability and it being old, if the transformer is good, it's affordably fixable. There are two pc boards and I just had both fixed for $200 total. So really, that's sort of worst case. The synchrowave 250 and 350 are newer square wave machines that should be about the same, so if you can get one of those for as cheap, I'd go that way. The drawback... it's BIG. Like 800lbs and five feet tall on a cooler. However, it rolls around as easily my MUCH smaller MIG welder. Saw two on ebay yesterday for a grand, so they're available. You'll also see a bunch for $3500 or so, new it's probably in the six grand range. It's a NICE welder. I don't know about Lincoln, but Miller is REALLY nice to deal with. Online and free are ALL the manuals for these machines. Parts from them are super expensive, but they're so common in industry that there's LOTS of aftermarket support. They also sponsor a nice forum from which you can gets lots of expert advice in the use, care and repair of these neat old industrial machines. Not really on topic, but my MIG welder is a Miller CP-200 with a wire feeder. It's a 3 phase machine easily converted for about 20 bucks. You see them on ebay in the three to five hundred range with wire feeders. It's ALSO a really nice super reliable machine that loafs along spraying .035 wire on a 20amp circuit I have set up for it. If anyone needs a nice wire feed that's adjustable enough to use on everything from auto sheet metal to 1/2" thick tractor parts, consider one of these. Google Haas-Kemp Miller CP-200 Welder Conversion for more info. It's been discussed on a dozen forums. It first came to life on the Practical Machinist website and you can easily find Dave Kemp's email and chat with him directly about it.
