I'll have to give that a shot, I was also thinking of running a seperate power supply to the wire feed, because the feed bogs down when the welder starts taking up the juice and makes it damn near impossible to know what your doing. My dad was a proffesional welder for a while, and he layed down some really nice beads with the HF unit, i was shocked, so i guess there is hope for the old fluxcore HF combo.

Biggest pain with flux core is getting the settings right. Wire speed and voltage play a huge part in it jumping around or burning holes through the metal. Best to just get a gas attachment and run it mig...you'll like the results MUCH more than flux-core.

LoL! Do like me, instead of wasting good pipe you could put to use... learn to weld on something you don't need.

Sawzall your cat in half, & weld it back together. By the time you finish, you can actually do descent on pipe.
