great welder would recommend , I've have the Hobart Handler 190 and I really like it , Hobarts are good welders at a great price ,parts are easy to find and these machines are built to last, don't let anyone convince you that they aren't good welding machines , good luck John
Just a couple welders and a couple of big hammers and torches.

Several years ago I spent a lot effort trying to get my hands on a Hobart Ironman. They come highly recommended from the two people I have known who used them.

can you even get the new ones in Aus? I know the old ones were imported, but not sure about ones like Jody shows.

Someone in Tasmania had one or two for sale, even quite recently. And I saw one on a farm and the bloke couldn't stop talking about it. But I couldn't find an agent, about two years ago. WESS even pretended they never heard of them, and they sell Millers.
