First do you know how to weld? if not it is useless. If you are going to jearn I would recomed a wire feed weldor, Lincoln is a well known name in the weldor field. what you see is what you get. no helmet or gloves.No welding rods either.

i dont relly know how to weild but i am in amfab in highschool

Why is this in the 2.2 scale section and not the tools section?

But... good luck building a tuber with a stick welder. I wouldn't suggest it. Check this out instead...

Skip the arc welders and get an oxy-acetelyne torch outfit. they cost around what a decent arc welder would cost (Victor is a good brand). Or you could pick up a propane torch from home depot, etc. that'll get the job done. If this "amfab" course is like my high school metal shop class, you'll learn to use a torch before the stick welder.

You need to work on your spelling. buy a TS8000 bernzomatic mapp gas kit at home Depot for about $45. buy some silver solder and flux from you local welding supply store.

Sorry, I didn't know these forums had spell check. :-(That bernzomatic is a great choice, which solder do you recommend?
