Quick update ..... I made SEVERAL changes. First I spent more time fitting the metal for a tighter fit,big difference!! Then I figured out I had the voltage to low. I turned it up increased the wire speed way better! Kept everthing cool put more light on my work area and readjusted my helmet.Now I'm happy with my final result no swiss cheese,alot stronger weld ,overall a way better finished product!!!! Now I can finally move on... On to the tig....
