I did the JB, my brothers name. I was teaching him too, the first spittle to the left is his first try, the line just to the right of it is his second try after some more direction, then he did the A for my name.

Then I welded the bolt to the corner for fun, smacked the head on the curb a few times to see if it would break off. It didn't.

The spatter I'm told is from the cheap Harbor Freight wire that came with the kit. If I use Lincoln wire with it, that shouldn't happen. The metal is about 1/8 inch thick stainless. Wire is just flux steel.




I want to try upping the speed and laying a fatter weld next time. Didn't have too much time to practice, because it was getting late. Just tried it for a bit when I got home from work.

Criticism will be expected and appreciate.
