You can buy "cheap" ones these days for under $90 new, this would be the best way to go.

got one of the cheapies ,good for lighter applications but the duty cycle is not good as they cut out a lot ,am thinking of adding a 240v comp style fan to mine to get better usage😁

Find a old 140amp cig one, even if you pay the same as a new one for it you'll be better off. Try ebay
