This is three passes with LN 25 Ironworker loaded with .045 E71T-11 wire. 200 amps, DECP, 238 WFS, 3-arc force, 1-balance. Took a good 1/2 hour to dial in to what you see here. Is this OK, or do I need more adjusting?

Dirty Welding Rods

Hi,
I found some older rod, aluminum, stainless, and brass. All of them have some dirt, rust contamination and general crap on them. What is the best way to clean them up, or are they no good?
Thanks in advance,
Buggsy

Tungston sizes

I've got a chance to pick up a bunch of .40 to 1/4" tungston rod. What and how should you run/use this stuff ? Tig is new to me, this is probably a dumb ?.
