Re: I weld like a 6th grader. Whats going on here?
make sure you do get a gas lens and a ceramic cup that goes over it, I use a 1/16 gas lens and a size 12 cup. that'll be a snug fit that won't allow oxygen to get into your argon (oxygen will explain all the coloring throughout your heat affected zone) but if you get color on the weld that means that you are letting oxygen enter in w/ the flow of your argon. Try moving your cup with the contour of the tubing, that'll help and if you get it right, you should not have too much color o n the weld but you'll see coloring through out your heat affected zone, discoloration on welds can be a weak point, but for stainless/mild.. I wouldn't know.. I weld titanium parts for my work. just some info.

You may even be able to bump the amps down a little more then you can keep the pedal full throttle until you get the technique down. Its just less things to worry about. Lastly make sure ur adding more filler, the picture you posted is well undercut and is bound to crack, so work on that.
Ya undercut=crack thats atleast what the Haynes welding manual says |
