Slightly off topic but... I finally tried to weld after my eye injury... One eyed TIG welding is NOT so easy.... After a couple rods I was doing OK but even then there are a lot of things to watch with one eye and NO depth perception.
Anyway, more on topic.... I did try different tip point angles, very interesting results. More practice it needed with that though as I was more concerned about learning to weld all over...
One other thing I tested. Turning down the argon flow. I noticed that my regulator had gotten bumped and was up at almost 20, I turned it down to 12, then 10 then 8 and had very good results. I should note that I did this with a gas lens and 1/16 tungsten on .063 3003 H14 and 1/16th 1100 series rod.
