In my experiences with 110 machines I've found that for strength 1/16" is a good thickness. Argon/co2 seems to work better than coated wire for metals thicker than that 1/8" - 5/32". 1/4" is usually too thick to weld as the heat is pulled away from the weld area producing poor or no weld. Remember, this is a "short arc" process. The arc is not on long enough to melt thick material.
