    Newbie in NC

    Hi all. New member here anxious to fire up my Millermatic 130 for the first time. Found the forum while looking for info on my machine.

    About me, I've played with welding for at least 30 years. Have run some 110v MIG, 220V MIG, a little TIG, and some stick. Never been more than a hobyist at any of it but I enjoy it. I hope to settle down and work on some basics woth this little machine. I picked this machine up about 10-12 years ago from someone in need of money and have never used it. Decided recently its time to fire it up.

    Look forward to learning from all of the knowledge here.
