Yeah I got a Hobart handler 140 and haven't touched my Lincoln stick since.lol.but I ran out of flux core wire recently so its a good time to get a bottle and run gas.

Man, that's great fab work, especially for a first-timer. You're quite an inspiration, friend! So did I read that right, you used a stick-welder on the rear bumper and flux-core on the front?
