will work down to 0.020" steel, but framebuilders have to deal with
stuff thinner than that, especially at the "lips" of a miter.

Nice!
So, lots of opinions and preferences out there. It might be good to go talk to the welding store. I know a lot of new machines have come out recently, including small stuff that doesn't need a 220 outlet, and one with simplified settings. I'm on a Syncrowave with an add-on pulser. The pulser is great. It's nice that I have the option for doing aluminum and stick, but I almost never use that. It seems like when selecting it's important to evaluate what you really need and if you are on a budget, maybe skip the aluminum and stick capabilities, and you don't need high amps. Personally, I wouldn't go without the pulser.
Also, I switched out my hose to a superflex hose which is lighter and more flexible > great.
