Eastwod Mig 135 or Longevity Migweld 140? Undecided. Thanks

I haven't used the Eastwood, but I have been very happy with my longevity. Also had a great customer service experience with longevity. They were completely willing to correct a mistake that I made without argument. (see my review for a more detailed description)

Well all I can say is my longevity has been a really good machine , I to was choosing between the eastwood 135 and the longevity 140 but the longevity offers a spool gun and at the time I believe eastwood did not , I am very happy with my 140 it does just what I need done P.S. looking into the new longevity 3 in 1 machine.

I got the 140 this past January.. My advise to you would be to get neither.. I have nothing but problems with it from day one.. It's a very inconsistent, unreliable machine.. Spend a little extra money and get a name brand machine.. Even a Lincoln Electric would be far superior.. My main problem with the Longevity is the feeding mechanism and all it's gritty components.. From the spool, the liner, right down to the nozzle.. Absolute junk!! Read the reviews of a the various longevity models.. The same people leave the same reviews for all the machines to boost the rating.. Don't waste your money on any of their machines.. You will be very disappointed and aggravated..

Buy the wltoys v912. It's very easy to fly and can take a beating. I have had 3 doublehorse 9116's and I'm not impressed.

Different body style, difference in handling. The 107 is more responsive and goes in reverse a little faster. Both are very easy to fly and both have a very gentle learning curve. If you are getting it for the body style then go ahead and get the 109, if you are getting it for the way it handles then get the 107, though there isn't a whole lot of difference but there is a difference.

Depends on what "best" means to you. When you compare the features, accuracy, and price that meets your needs then you have your "best". I selected the original Fluke 87 over 25 years ago because it offered me everything I needed for a reasonable price and I expected it to last at least 5-10 years. Selecting the newer Fluke 87-5 when my old one died didn't take much thought. For my varied uses, electronics, electrician work, automotive, etc. there were many DMMs that would do the job, some cheaper, less accuracy, not as durable construction, or have other features. I stuck with what I knew worked and kept working. If you are just checking caps, there's a lot of less expensive choices and ones that will test larger value caps. If you think you'll be getting more into electronics then a Fluke is a wise long term investment.

I have the Ontario and am familiar with the kukri.Both are better suited to combat applications.Get the Schrade series SCHF14,15,or 24.They all have 3.5 inch thick heavy duty blades and are easily kept sharp with a Lansky mini-crock stick.They are made in China,but the workmanship is surprising good,too good considering they are a our enemies,regardless what the pundits tell you.Used to be they put out junk, not now,I wonder if this excellent workmanship has spun off on their weapons of war?Scary!

The expectations you bring to the question will be your best guide. For me the stability, control, accuracy of cut and "feel" are what keeps me very satisfied with my Mag 77(and now with the LT version). Finer cut? More teeth and less set on the teeth. Power? The 77 has no equal for me- and the clutch feature tops it off nicely. But my son's Bosch sidewinder is good and I use a Makita sidewinder with no great sacrifice. Try different models-if possible- before you decide. I don't believe there is one clear answer to your inquiry. Pay your money and take your choice!

Should work great for MIG. I use mine for both MIG and TIG and I have no complaints. I have about 20 hours use on it with no problems. Very simple to use and comes with easy to understand instructions on how to adjust it. I'd highly recommend it for a beginner. I've been welding for 15 years and wish that I'd gotten one sooner. Dave

The 220 has Two max speeds (400 & 1400 rpm) while the 120 has One max speed (650 rpm.) Also, torque is 310 vs 115 inch/lbs. The B&D; site really sucks, http://www.blackanddecker.com/allproducts/20-volt-drills.aspx

Actually I think it will work.I took a chance and ordered it for our Mig 135 and it fit fine,I wasn't able to locate the exact gun I needed so i gave this one a shot.I figured if it didn't fit I would just send it back.Jim M

If you don't absolutely need macro, go for the 135. I like it way better for portraits. I actually just purchased he 100L macro but it is specifically for newborn details and wedding details. I'll keep my 135 for portraits every time.

135L exceeds the 200L II in almost every respect. Contrast, sharpness, etc. The perspective one achieves with the 135 length is lovely. Rent them both if you're on the fence that much. I purchased the 70-200 F4L IS for event & wedding photography, and eventually sold it for the 200L II; every time I was using the 70-200, I was at the far end, and the prime is sharper, lighter, offers the extra stop (vs. the f4), etc. My 135L has been with me for years, is rarely matched in performance, and would be the last thing to go in my kit.

If you have a gas feed on the handler 135, then it will work. Not sure if the 135 allows for a gas hook up or not... Works with my 140.

They fly very similar. I had issues with both the 107g and 109g drifting backwards a bit but I fixed that by stuffing the nose with a bit of poster tack - its good cause you can stick it on the outside to test out how much you need and where you need to put it before you open it up and really do it. Other than (obviously) their shape I don't know any big differences - they both will respond to the same controller. This one can be harder to land on small surfaces because it doesn't have landing skids - both wheels in the front and the bottom fin in the back have to contact the landing surface. Oh - and the 109 doesn't have that hideous blue/red flashing light on the front - it has two cool bluish white leds on either side. They're very similar and I don't know why but for some reason I enjoy flying my 109 more.

Wow, I have to retract my initial response after noticing WHICH model this was. I returned the 1600W as an albatross. No idea how heavy but that thing was huge. I returned it for the X5 1200 which is super. It only weighs 290g / 10.2 oz and does a great job.

M5 x 15mm sounds correct. Whatever it turns out to be I'd go with stainless for strength - had bottom screw snap off after 8 months of riding. just a thought.

Buy a quality unit such as Align TREX or Eflight Blade. The 450 size is good to learn on, so stay in that size range. The Hausler parts are much lower quality and when you fix it you will realize the difference. I own two of these and neither flies anymore.
