Do you have a favorite wire? I just gt my MIG Welder, it's a pawn shop special Lincoln 140 in very good condition. There's no problem with the welder, what I'd like to know is, do you find differences in wire and what is your favorite type.
I've burned up a small spool (I pound) of Lowes wire, then after a suggestion I bought a spool (2 pounds) of Harbor Freight wire. I must say the Harbor Freight wire seems to be more difficult to use, more spatter, more bubbles in the weld. I will admit that I sorta' don't want the HF wire to be any good.
