Yarr! Got to live up to the Bomp standard!

Ok, bought some proper tips, bought the welder from Uncle Matt, switched in my ez grind. Come to find out I had .035 in all this time! So now, .023 with a proper .023 tip. Welded in 2 patches last night with the ez grind. THAT was a learning curve. Takes a LOT more wire speed. Had to revert to the far extreme method to dial it in. But, it's the BOMB-BEE when you get it down good, and it grinds like butter but ironically, it lays down and melts in a lot better than the standard stuff. Git some today. The wire, too!
