A few years ago I bought a MIG welder from harbor Freight. On sale for a little under $100. I use it all the time. Not as pretty or versatile as a TIG, but pretty cheap. So far, it's done everything I've asked of it - from gate frames to a drive shaft loop. For the average home owner and car guy, it works just fine.

I looked in to taking a course at my local JC. But all their classes are 4 days a week, 4 hours a night. I don't have that much free time. I bought a book and learned to do it on my own. A local welding supply shop now offers classes.
