## Overview

The FORNEY Easy Weld 140 Amp Flux-Cored Wire Feed Welder is a lightweight, portable, and powerful welding machine designed for DIYers and professionals alike.

## Description

The Forney Easy Weld 140 FC-i is a powerful flux-core wire welder. This machine is ideal for do-it-yourselfers (DIY), maintenance, repair, metal fabrication, and hobbyists. Like the other Forney Easy Weld machines, this welder is extremely lightweight (weighing in at only 19 pounds!) and portable. This unit is easy to use and features infinite voltage and wire feed speed control. The Forney Easy Weld 140 FC-i is incredibly convenient, as it does not require gas and can run off standard household power as long as you have at least a 20 AMP breaker.

Review: Pura calidad - Soy soldador industrial y he trabajado con inversores de renombre que empiezan con la letra M y L. Me anime a comprar este inversor por los buenos comentarios. La verdad cuando la saqué de su caja me sorprendió la calidad de manufactura. Por otro lado, soldé varias placas de 1/4 con vigas de 4" y trabajo estupendo los cordones bien echos. Me encanta este inversor madein USA. No chinos.
Review: Very good flux core welder, at a very good price... - This is the best value flux-core welder going right now. I was sceptical after not just one, but two of my friends bought the cheap one from Harbor Freight, both used it one time, and both returned it the same day. Both then bought the Hobart Handler instead. I've been needing a replacement for my old mig machine for quite some time, but just never could afford to spend so much for a decent one. I finally had a little money saved up, and with a lengthy list of projects adding up that require welding I finally started shopping for a mig machine. I can't afford to keep a gas bottle and really have no place to store one if I could so I needed something that could run flux core and runs dc neg. current. I saw many reviews for this welder and though I had been planning on buying the Hobart because I was already familiar with it's performance, I decided to save quite a bit and give this one a try. I don't regret it at all. In fact, it works better than I ever expected. The adjustments are a very nice touch compared to others with only 2 or 4 options for setting the current. This one can be dialed in to the perfect setting allowing great penetration without blowing through. I mostly weld pipe, so for me that was a very important thing to consider. The welder itself is very light at only 19lbs before adding a roll of flux core wire. Seems to be of sturdy construction. The outer case is pretty much the same as my old $600 mig bought off the Snap On truck almost 20 years ago. The torch isn't the best, but certainly more than adequate. I only say that because the lead isn't as thick and protective of the liner and wire inside as other mig welders, but it does have a thick-ish rubber sleeve an is 8 feet long. Tips are easily changed out, the same as any other mig torch. Like I mentioned before, I mostly weld pipe. A lot of exhaust pipes and bike frames, and so far I absolutely love this machine. I took a chance based on all the good reviews and it certainly paid off. I saved almost $200 and feel like I actually got a better welder where it counts. The infinite style adjustments were a big one. The Hobart I was looking at only had 4 settings based on metal thickness. I prefer more of a range to work with. Thickness is only relevant if we all weld exactly the same way at exactly the same speed. While borrowing both of my friends Hobart's for exhaust work I had a hard time because setting it on 2 wasn't giving me the penetration I needed, but 3 would blow through even if I moved fast and cranked up the wire speed to compensate. My welds were not coming out consistent and even breaking soon after I finished. The 140fci does an awesome job. I literally spent 5 minutes puting a roll of wire on and setting it up. The ground clamp is fairly stout and also 8 feet to match the torch length. The quality of the welds I'm getting is way better than I expected. Though I saw many good reviews, not just on here either. There were many on YouTube and other sites as well. I couldn't be happier with this purchase. For someone like me, that just needed to be able to fix things at home without the need to borrow a welder, and maybe even take my bike building hobby to the next level the price and quality are perfect. I feel like I've already saved a lot of money just being able to fabricate the intake manifold and exhaust pipe expansion chamber I've done so far. They weren't just functional but look nice as well, and most importantly, are air tight, no leaks at all. It's easy to use, just choose your current and set wire speed around the same to start, then dial it in to your preferred performance level. I was able to buy this, a decent hood, 2lb roll of wire, and spare tips all for right around 300 dollars. I feel the welder alone is worth that all day. I would highly recommend this to anyone who either welds but doesn't plan to ever use gas, or wants to learn on a quality machine that doesn't cost an arm and a leg. Sure, I'd love a nice Miller with all the bells and whistles, who wouldn't? But, I don't use it to make a living, and I can't afford one, so this here was perfect. I can't say enough good things about this welder, and the price just makes it a much sweeter deal. I plan to get a lot of use out of it in the coming weeks finishing up a couple bike builds I currently have going. I'm confident that I will be able to do all my welding and have no problems at all. If that changes, I'll come back and change my review, but I don't think it'll even be an issue. The only thing better than this deal might be the 140mp because then I'd have my arc and mig in one handy machine. While writing this review all I'm thinking about is welding up my latest side project, so I'm going to go and do that now. Very happy with this machine, highly recommend to anyone who has a need for one, and would definitely buy again. Even the bright green is cool. Can't wait to get it fired up again.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Do you know what the power output is turned all the way down?**
A: Hello! The minimum power output is 32A at approximately 14 volts. This is an output of roughly 450W. Thank you for your question!

**Q: What type of .30 tip? Thread pitch? Size?**
A: Standard Tweco 1 style consumables will fit the torch on this unit. 

Thank you for your question.

**Q: Is the wire supposed to move really slow even turned all the way up?**
A: Yes, 
The wire feed speed on this 140Fc-I 261 is slower than some may be used to. 
But, it does not affect the welding ability of this machine though. 
Thank you for your question.

**Q: This come with the welding wire?**
A: Mine arrived Jan 24,'20, and no wire came with it. I had already ordered 2 rolls of wire.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great little welder for a novice like me.
*by M***D on 4 April 2020*

Great little welder. Never welded before and with the table it makes it very easy to set up the correct current and wire feed rate. Recommend for any novice or someone who wants a great quality little welder to have around.
