Thinking about getting a trail /out door welder and was deciding between a ready weld 2 or making up my own stick welder setup. Both would be run off multiple 12v batts. Found a decent deal on a used ready weld 2 but when i checked the readyweld site its down and the contact number inopp. Im kinda hesitant to buy a product i cant get repalcement parts for. Please let me know if they are still in buisness. Also i would appreciate opinions between flux core and stick welding for a trail /out door portable batt opperated welder. Thanks mike
