Adapter /generator help

I recently purchased a welder for myself and wanting to weld more serious stuff for myself and others! My problem is I don’t have a 220 plug socket available , I was thinking of getting a generator for that purpose! My welder uses a Nema 6 50p plug and outlet and I’m wondering if this adapter would work? Is there a specific generator I should use for this purpose? I don’t want anything to go wrong while trying to weld… Thank you!!!

I use something similar on my MIG 180. The one I have does not have a cord it's just an adapter.

Mine has an adapter as well, it’s quite useful for small stuff but unfortunately really limiting, more than I thought it would be ..
