Still practicing on some tubing before I weld my roll cage. Thanks John.

Looks good man! I'm jealous of your new machine. john

Thanks man.

Kym-just starting at 130 amps and then backing off slightly on the foot pedal. Thanks John.

Sorry the 3/32 is the top weld.

Bent my first hoop today! Came out great. I need some advice please on some 1 5/8" .134 mild steel tubing. Welded both at 130 starting amps the first with 1/16th filler and the second with 3/32 filler. Do you need to shove the rod into the metal pretty hard, as I have just been dippin. As alway...

Thanks for all the welding videos. John

Nice work Kym!

I have zero complaints. Awesome machine! Very stable arc. No pedal issues. Here are a couple of pictures of welds that machine can produce. I have a ck9 flex with a 7 gas lens for everything. Thanks John.

Thanks for all the tighelp so far. It has helped me a bunch. A review of the new lincoln tig 200 would be great. Also, I definitely could use some help, thoughts etc. On 4130 chromoly .083 wall as my friend pulse tig welds a super fine head fairly clumpy looking I just either manual pulse or don't p...

Auto correct sucks. Pictures of cage welds?

That's pretty neat man. I just built my first nine inch ford. Took a while to get the pattern right. I commend you on that. Do you do any cage work and if so do u have any pointers or pictures Torvalds? Thanks John.

Looks good!

Big gearhead what u been working on lately?

Thanks everyone for the kind words. Like I said, until now I discovered I can generally weld better without the pulse. Funny thing, I think I can just see the puddle better for starters. Other than running 120 - 150 Hz on a.c. and some cleaning action adjustments, I can say I will no longer be using...

Heres some stainless tubing to a header flange.

Rick H. I have to thank you for your post. I just tried welding normally at 130 amps with no pulse and just got the best results yet. Iam confident now that there is plenty of penetration and the weld actually looks better. I cant tell you how many times ive heard people say do not pulse etc, and th...

Practice makes perfect. Don't give up. I almost sold my welder 3 times in 6 months. Now I'm on my way. Welcome to the forum. John.

Thanks Rick. That is manual pulse. John.

Thanks. I couldn't get the filler to melt right at first. Now with 130 amps works great. I appreciate the advice AFR.

Here is one more picture.

Here are a couple of pictures. I ended up using a little more amperage. Thanks for any opinions. john

Welding .120 to a smaller wall horizontal seatbelt tube around .60 to.80 or so. Fit up is perfect. No gap.

Local store does not have any .045. Or I would have tried it. like I said fit up is tight.
