Our Story

Cunningham Equipment Inc. was started in 1946 by 
Joseph A. Cunningham Sr. The first authorized line of welding equipment given to Mr. Cunningham was Miller Electric. Joe Cunningham remained good friends with Lars Miller, and later, after Lars’ passing, with Mrs. Elizabeth Miller as well. Joe sold so many Miller welding machines Lars Miller agreed to brand machines for Cunningham Equipment. Marketed under“Welding Wholesale” and later “WeldSale” brands these machines can still be found hard at work in many older welding shops. We have been a distributor of National Standard MIG welding wire since 1965, and a long time distributor of Aronson, Thermal Dynamics, Ampco, Bug-O, McKay and Stoody just to name a few.
