Gday mate. id be looking for a DC inverter Stick/Tig machine, stick to the name brands as they are very cheap for what they are, CIG, Miller, Esab, Kempi all make a great little machine at a great price and it will last for ever, even the top of the line Fornius machine can be brought for under $1000. if you want to get a mig id be looking for a second hand machine and the best ones to look for are the old Australian made CIG machines, keep an eye out on eBay & grays online as they do come up quite often. I would not hesitate to buy one that is 30 year old as they last for ever and parts a readily available.
From what I have seen and experienced the BOC machines are a pile of crap.

Cheers Dan.
