There are tooooooons of very useful videos on YouTube that will walk a person through most welding general questions. Chances are if a person wanted to they could search for a video specific to the machine they are looking to purchase.
There are of course some perhaps less than good videos bordering on dangerous as well as sponsored videos that may be a bit misleading toward product reviews.
I am a back porch, basement, barn, driveway and sometimes grassy knoll welder that recommends spending some time on YouTube learning about the various machines and techniques.
Before buying any welder take the time to find local sources for supplies such as bottles, wire(price both flux and solid),tips, noozles, etc., they will push that Miller 211 well past the budget. Supplies from places like WalMart, TSC, Lowes, Home Depot and Harbor Freight can get you started but things like gas bottles tend to be much much much cheaper from welding supply companies.
