mig welder upgrade help

[welderskelter]

At the price of bottles and wire I am so glad I am old school. I run a cheap fixed shade helmet. An old DC 250 stick welder. I do probably more welding than to be called a hobby welder. I have so many friends that have wire machines that just sit because it is easier and cheaper to use a buzz box. I spend money on things like cut off saw. Drill press tools of all kinds instead. Just rambling. :
