Re: A picture is worth a thousand words
Stick out measures 0.292" or 7.24 mm.
This is my next electrode with only a couple inches of weld on it.
Post flow is about 8 seconds.

Re: A picture is worth a thousand words
Just over 15 cfh on a pressure type gage. Santa hasn't brought a ball type flowmeter yet.
Also I'm using a gas lens on a type 17 torch.

Re: How long can you pratice?
I don't get much past one filler rod before my torch is too hot to handle then I take a break. If I am just practicing laying beads. I have a ladder designed with lap joints that I will weld soon.

Re: Hello from Oklahoma
Thanks for the welcome.
Don't have any good questions right now. Just need to practice. Joined some 1 1/2" steel tubing today, first two looked like a beginner gave it a try and the third one gave me lots of practice filling holes. Now to fill the holes I made filling the holes.

Hello folks, New guy here from Oklahoma. I've been lurking here for a while now it's time to say hi. I'm trying to learn how to TIG weld. I've pushed puddles across several feet of 1/8th inch steel with some success to start practicing. Today I'm actually joining some pieces together. Glad to be her...
