You are set for machines. For me, it would be an easy decision to keep what you have and become adept at TIG, MIG and stick.
After a lot of research, I chose to run C25 for MIG gas. I would recommend choosing the LWS closest to your home to get shielding gas. If they give you any trouble, move onto the place that is the second closest to your home.
That huge machine will run E6010 like a champ! Stick welders will envy that, for sure.
I use a tungsten grinder; it was expensive, but I have already gotten my money’s worth out of it. I also usually use a TIG pen (about $35 online).
I have never desired glass cups. I am happy with standard cups & gas lenses.
The Welding Tips & Tricks podcast as well as Arc Junkies podcast (I like the new host WAY better than Jimmy McKnight) will hyperaccelerate your welding education.
My favorite YouTube guru is Bob Moffatt.
