Fixing Destroyed Soccer Goals with the Primeweld MIG 180 – Surprising Results

Today I’m putting the Primeweld MIG 180 through a real-world repair test: fixing damaged aluminum soccer goals for my local recreation department. This isn’t a clean shop demo—it's a practical look at how this machine performs when the job actually matters. In this video, I walk through the entire repair process: assessing the damage, cutting out the failed sections, prepping new steel, and welding everything back together. If you’re wondering whether the MIG 180 has the power, control, and reliability to tackle structural repairs, this field test should give you a clear answer. I also cover what settings I used, how the welder handled different thicknesses, where it impressed me, and where it surprised me.
