My vote is for the MIG too. Also second the brand name for parts service etc. A Hobart Handler 175 or equivalent Miller with the backing gas capability. Make sure it is set up with the correct polarity for flux core or backing gas. Hardest part of MIG is knowing where to set it which you'll get with a little practice and trial and error. Once you've got it set you'll practice techniques. First and foremost know you're equipment and get in a comfortable position to access as much of the weld as possible. You'll wonder how you lived without one. Friend of mine gets charged $250 for the welding truck to pull in his driveway, that's an expensive way to weld on one little bracket. Go for it!
