BEST STARTER MACHINE FOR PIPELINE WELDERS
Getting started is expensive and confusing a first. It is hard to know exact brands, tools and equipment you actually have to have verse what would be nice to have. You need a machine to weld and if you are pipeline bound it is good to know the best starter machine.
Now, just like with most things this isn't the one you have to start with, but if you don't know anything or anybody and need this questioned answered then I can do that for you.
I always suggest the SA 200. It is the machine my brother and I both started with and they make great first machines for a couple different reasons. I talk about this a little more in depth in the video, but mainly because they are the caliber of welder you will need to weld big pipe all day, are relatively affordable and easy to get ahold of.
