Hobart Handler 125 Flux Core Mig welder unboxing and review for beginners.
I bought this Hobart 125 Handler at tractor supply as an open item to review and seems like a good beginners welder. The Hobart Handler 125 is rated for 130 amps and works on 120v. I did a quick unboxing and review even though someone had already assembled the Hobart Handler mig welder. The Hobart 125 laid some decent welds and I used my Hobart Champion elite to power it.
