He’s definitely the shizzle.

high praise...This dude could weld a dick on a snowman
Wow. Mind blown. And yes Frosty will have a steel cock this year.

gonna be a clueless idiot here, what exactly are we looking at and what is the significance of materials? thickness and inverted pulse helps? is this a test piece or actual parts?

The jazzy 10 is my new fave for mild, and the ally 5 is now the workhorse for the AC stuffsThose ceramic cups are the absolute tits. I just switched for TIG work, and it's a big step up in terms of quality and easy of work.
Test piece, trying to get a new machine dialed in. Any constructive input would be appreciated.
Material thickness is similar to a toyota frame and rockslider foot. This would mimic the inverted weld along the bottom edge of the frame.
practice, practice, practice. if you can teach someone to do it, you know your knowledge is sufficient. this is a general life thing. If you want to test yourself, the best way is to try and explain it, as it will be immediately obvious where you are good and what's not. Be honest with yourself and don't be overly critical because it's supposed to be rewarding and beating yourself up defeats the whole purpose, regardless if the job is done right. This isn't a free pass at doing subpar work to make it enjoyable rather it's an opportunity to step back, do some more practice and learning and come back to do it right.
Your weld looks like way too much filler and a lot of oxidation going on. What little I do know is to make sure you have clean, well prepped surfaces and good gas flow to protect the arc and puddle. Pulse looks tricky as you are on a clock cycle for timing rather than moving as you fill.
Zero experience with pulse Mig, but generally speaking for uphill or overhead, I add a tad extra wire speed and increase my travel speed. Can't let the puddle get too big or it turns into a big splatter on the nearest horizontal surface.Gas: plenty (~35 CFM 100% Ar)
Clean weld surface: not at all, that's scrap off the shop floor, and pretty oily too.
Wire-speed: High, I'd have to check my notes. Any less wire speed and I wasn't getting a short circuit, which caused the axial spray drops to hit the floor not hit the work piece.
Both wire speed and voltage are 15 to 20 % higher than I was using to make nice beads in a normal welding position.
It's been a long time since I welded MIG, and there's something I'm forgetting about out of position MIG.

I need to “sit down with Jody” and figure out how to MIG one of these days. I’ve had my little Hobart 140 for years, purchased from a friend, but have never even plugged the thing in.Yeah, watching some "welding tips and tricks" videos I definitely had too much wire exposed and probably not enough voltage, but definitely too slow a travel speed.
Undercut is a definite indicator of slow travel speed as well as too low WFSYeah, watching some "welding tips and tricks" videos I definitely had too much wire exposed and probably not enough voltage, but definitely too slow a travel speed.
Love it!Getting furloughed again when this week is over. So I decided to not work and make something for myself here at work. Made these steering clevis’s and tie rods.
