as the title
i take it .6mm wire in my 160tm aint gonna cut the mustard lol
it is only for a garden heater but i want the hot plate on it to keep my brew warm during the cold evenings lol
also i have welded 4" od pipe into the rear for a flue and struggled a bit how is best way to get the earth on it put it on the pipe or the bottle i am joining it to?? arc kept leaving the pipe to arc against the bottle (poor return on the pipe?)
might sound like a basic question but had a go at it just kept on grinding it back and laying it again
in the end it was earthed to the bottle and weld pool on th bottle flicked it into the pipe to join it then tried it around the edge and joined it up really messy but when ground back it looked ok
any tips??
cheers
