best welder for newbie beginners-experts recommendations to choose I researched the best welder for a beginner as i am finally getting into welding after years of putting it off. i have been experiencing a lot of frustration with just borrowing equipment here and there, and now i want something of my own that’s not too complicated to learn on. i went through reviews from trusted sources like WeldingWeb, Miller forums, and YouTube channels like Weld.com, and after comparing many options these two kept coming up as the top choices: ARCCAPTAIN 200Amp MIG Welderhttps://www.amazon.com/ARCCAPTAIN-Welding-Inverter-Portable-Equipment/dp/B0B1TGZ8XN?th=1 Lincoln Electric 90i MIGhttps://www.amazon.com/Lincoln-Electric-Weld-PAK-Protective-K5256-1/dp/B0BTMVVG35/?th=1 however, i am having trouble deciding which one would be better for me as a total newbie and i would love to get your expert advice and hoping maybe some experienced welders or instructors on this forum can also share their advice.i usually plan on doing small home projects like shelves, frames, and maybe car repairs down the road. which one would you recommend for a first machine? any suggestions or advice would be appreciated.Thanks in advance
