good start, some points though to improve your weld.

watch the puddle more and the arc less. (i can see from how the bead is uneven that you were not watching the puddle when you should have been) wait for it to become fluid and only very slightly convex before proceeding, and remember, if it's too convex move slower, too concave & burning through, move faster) right now it looks like you need to slow down and maybe turn the heat up a bit.


hope that helps

thanks for the advise man
It was my first Mig weld :) had to get used to it...I was moving to fast indeed...and it was kinda difficult to see the puddle with the mig welder couldn't see where I was welding at first, but I changed the lenses on the visor and that did the trick
