bead
Man I knew I was a better welder than my lincoln SP100 110V would produce. Just laid this baby down this afternoon and made 3 more just like it.
I HIGHLY recommend the Millermatic 180 with auto set if anyone is in the market for a mig. Sounds like "sparky" the electric chair when I pull the trigger!! |

Re: bead
That's funny, I just did the same thing recently brrowed my best friends miller and was throwing down insane welds. I just thought it was me. By the way were you pushing or pulling? I aways have better luck pushing.

Re: bead
I was almost exactly 90* which is what I call "pushullen". I was making small cursive "e's" or little loops down the seam. Also cool how a big 230V welder can handle really small jobs too.

Re: bead
Well, in all seriousness, that was some nice welding, kudos! Is that a perch on a axel? I would hardly call that lite welding if it is. So we both know a thing or two about beads....damn( no comment)

Re: bead
shhhhhh.......it wasn't really truck related. I'm putting a ford 9" in my Camaro bracket car. Just tacked them in place with my little 100 until I got the Miller home. Was finally able to burn them in place.

Re: bead
I bought a Miller 211 auto set about 3 months ago.I haven't been able to do much with it yet but what I have done really makes my lack of skills much less noticeable.Looks like you're well on your way to stacking dimes.

Re: bead
What would be nice to see is a bead with the Lincoln next to a bead by the Miller.
Looks really good!
