My Nemeses SS butt weld tube to Sheet in my opinion is improving... ?
The only weird thing is if I have the flat sheet on my bench with the tube sitting vertically on it I tack it ok.. but when I try to weld it I struggle with blowing holes in the pipe.. ( 45 degree attack angle and no 4 cup)
But using the same set up but with the tube laying down on the bench and the flat sheet at 90 degrees ( tacked ) I can weld it without holes...
Anyway your opinions appreciated ...
This is as it was welded with only a wire brush over it post weld.. the SS was all just scrap I was using for practice ...
