Sort of a nube here, I decided its time to move out of the kitchen and build a brew stand. Im trying to weld it, problem is I dont know how to weld, but i feel like this is as good a time as any to learn. So, in doing some research Ive come across a relatively cheap Flux welder from harbor freight.

Would this be a good machine to learn on? or just a waste of money? benifits of this vs mig welding or reasons to go mig? and would it be sufficient to weld 1 & 1/2" square steel 16ga? Also, while on the topic, any have an opinion on that material for the brew stand... think it will be strong enough?
Any other advice would be appreciated. I realize this might be something for a welding forum but i figured enough people on here are welding experts or have been in a similar position. thanks guy. much appreciated
