Forney 42450
First Impressions

"Sticks the metal together."

I had to weld a 2" pipe to a steel plate and this help keep the pipe in place. Can't say enough good things about this product. He constantly spills oil on it. I was using these, and the 1/8th rods, in a 240 welder. Had the Forney 42450 assembled in no time.

Forney 42450 Final Thoughts

"I'm very impressed."

I'm decent at the welding part, the rod feeding part was holding me back. I received it yesterday and actually welded with it today. At the end of the day the Forney 42450 is solid and cheap. Came as advertised and on time and the person that will be using it is well pleased. The Forney does not have dual gas inputs.

Overall Score 4.6

(17 Points)
