Hi, I bought a nice Clarke 151 setup from a gent on here and had my 1st go at laying some learning welds. I have been reading the tutorials and clearly I need a lot more practice.
Tried not to fall into going too fast and the 1st weld looked pretty good? With good penetration.
Then they seemed to not be so good and the wire feed seemed too fast or was I starting to rush?
2mm plate with 6mm wire and CO2 at 10ish - wire speed started at 7, turned down to 6,then 5 but still seemed to be coming out more than I could melt. Power was on A,3, Max.
Appreciate any views
Cheers
Chris
