Thanks to everyone who advised me on what to everyone who advised me on what to look out for while buying inverter welding machine.

Went to the market today and saw one being tested, asked for the price and why it's better. The maxtech was cheaper than the one in picture. The price is #27,500 and the capacity is 200 amps.

Cc Egunmogaji2, N3XT and all others. Thanks again

saw that. It's around 35k but it requires a very big generator which I don't have now. The petrol generator which I use at home is what I intend to pair it with. 3600 model

MrOkenwa:

I did a roofing 3 months ago and another roof installation is ongoing today. Last week, I collected 4 different quotations and they all gave different measurements(673, 723, 759, and 820). I chose the 673sq mtr. The price of the aluminum longspan and workmanship were somehow close. one of the installers told me that it is "oja okunkun". that is, the more you look, the less you see grin.
Meanwhile, we have wonderful members here who can handle the roofing and various other works. They are very good at what they do. I engaged 3 guys here during my last build( Abolarin91, Adedward and the archi guy that hardly visit this thread). they did wonderful job for me. Mr Ade is handling the 30 windows of my present build.

multikolour:
mine I got a quotation of 285 from 4 different people, I bought 300sqm because of wastage. I was on ground at the shop during loading and I was counting them in bulk of 30sqm. But to my surprise, after installation 300sqm finished with the work still pending and I have to add 15sqm to complete the house.

If they will cheat you they have so many ways to cheat.

I read your comments and can relate; I feel sorry for people. The truth is, a roofer that wants to cheat you would still cheat you irrespective of any control you put in place. Just hope for an honest roofer and leave the rest in the hands of God. I just don’t get why we are terribly wicked against one another for no just cause.

Its now N3,050 per bag at my end. Information from a reliable source said this might extend till February 2021.

It’s already taking a hit on us here as our block makers now manage to get 400 bags per week.

LOL "It is quite unfortunate that Nigerians do not know how easy it is to carry out transactions like this"
I am not a mumu but a learner meaning I am s student, I know how to deal
I have act as a middle man before i left home 33 year ago
I have dollar account , i have friends with dollar account
With US bank fee of about $85 OR Less , i can send US dollar to my friend account
Call the buyer and ask my friend to move the money to the buyer account
Do I need you? HELL TO THE NO
if rate at https://www.abokifx.com/home
Say 485, know that I am looking for 485 to 495
Go play dude

Oga de, SHUT UP. Don't talk like having a dollar account is an achievement because if it was, I have dollar accounts both a personal account and business (CORPORATE) accounts with three different banks which I operate with to reduce transaction cost. You are talking about a foreign account, I have an operational USA account, A liuthiana bank account that can receive any currency you can think of from any country. Bro keeps shut and talk like a businessman and stop talking like a KID who just started having a bank account. Friends, you talk about friends, I have a lot of them outside and many of them are mostly sailors, moving from what country to another. Make I no talk too much. WISE UP.
