I did clean it with a flappy disc before welding.
When turning up the power should I turn up the wire speed as well? Or you reckon it is good since it is stacking on the plate?

Hey everyone,
So, some time has gone by and I ended up buying said machine.
I tried it for the first time today, with 6mm wire and 100% CO2 at about 14 (cant remember the unit's name).
Have in mind I've never welded before, and have never been around a welder so, this is totally new for me...
Yes it is. I just gave it a go. I think it is fine.
My first "welds":
Uff that looks like a "mancona": opel manta with ascona front end. Have you got more pictures you can share? Looks nasty :fighting:
Hope so, I'm about to try it. I mean it doesn't come out but it has side to side and in and out slack. Like half a centimeter.
Ahaha you have a great eye. Track car project.

So I bought my first welder (mig) and was setting it up earlier today and when connecting the torch to the machine itself I noticed it has quite a bit of slack (moves around) quite a bit, even when "fully" tight.
I recorded a video:
I've never done any welding before and I'd...

Hello everyone,
Thisi the short of helpful community that I like. Welcoming and truly interested and interesting.
I got the welder a few days ago but I have yet to try it since I'm waiting on the CO2 Gas supply. A friend advised me on buying a bottle from a beer distributer since they would...
Hey Eddie and thank you so much.
Your input was very helpful.
I have accounted for the extra costs. A friend told me that beer suppliers would sell me a CO2 bottle for 30€ and would charge another 30€ for a recharge. The problem is that it is straight CO2, not an argon mix. How would that...
Hey everyone,
So, the closest I've been to welding is soldering or hot glue gunning... I'm a classic car enthusiast and I've been looking into welding for the past couple of weeks.
I've decided on starting of MIG welding (will be using gas since it from what I've read can be cleaner than...
