'Relatively' inexpensive TIG welder suggestions?

[Cushing H.]

Hi Storm. If/when I get around to building an oven, I would like to give you a call about welding (current plan is for a welded angle iron frame). But I have some real limitations on power, that will limit me to 129v, FCAW. Never welded a single thing in my life....

You have my number whenever you get around to do it.

I have the prime weld tig 225 and I must say it is an exceptional machine. I've used it pretty hard for a year now and everything works perfectly. At school we use $17000 lincoln electric multiprocess machines and for tig and stick, I prefer my $700 prime weld. The ck torch is great, it is rated at 150 amps I believe but I've used it at 200 amps just fine several times. It's a great welder with nearly all the features you'd want. Only thing I'd want to add is a water cooled torch.
Also the customer service is great. I have called multiple times and a real person picks up and answers my questions in half a minute.
