Default Indian Learns to stick metal together (some nsfw)
ok take in mind here, previous to this I have had no more experience than welding in gr.9 metal shop

Using a miller stick welder

first try was the washer to angle iron then small piece to big piece.




after a bunch of ------- around and learning this came up



actually sticking pieces together

and ten rods later this was the result






and if you hate my welds this is for you




Notes?/Tips??

you need to steady your hand. get practice. depth, and bead look alright. ALSO stop doing the start, slow down, speed up, slow down with the electrode when you weld.

The only way to get better is to practice. way back when i was just learning to stick weld i just took a plate and ran as many beads as i possibly could fit


not too long you should get decent beads


keep practicing!
