Yup. Hopefully in the next 3-6 months I can get a decent MIG. I'd love a TIG though. Maybe one day.

I can make a pretty nice bead like that with my chicago elec flux cored, mines usually a litter wider, probably because I have the feed on 6 or so

But most of the time I dont even give myself the chance to make a bead, always filling big ------- gaps and ----

Any specific technique you use?

No gas option. For the weld thats zoomed in, it's low power, speed 6 making little circles. It's the Chicago electric 90amp deal. As my fiance would say - excellent penetration
