Miller 175, or Lincoln 180.
I've done 3/16 with my MM175 and .030 not even dialed all the way up. Preparation, gap and technique are key.
Yup. Having a gap and proper edge beveling helps 'cheat' the amp requirement some relative to simply going by net plate thickness..you are correct there. Of course, with a 175 machine, you are good for 3/16" anyway.
