I have borrowed a mig welder that is 220 the male plug connector is the same style as 110 ( two flat vertical blades and a round ground) only it's larger . He has a jumper that allows him to plug into his dryer ( three blades , two in v pattern one vertical) I have a gas dryer and can't use it . My 220 set up for my compressor has a plug style similar to 110 w/ one blade horizontal . Q. Is there a jumper made so I can use the welder in my 220 outlet ? or if I make my oun jumper will there be any electrical problems
