How's it looking?

Just fired up the new portamig. Here are the first results.
42" wheelhorse mowing deck.
any comments welcome.

Looks pretty good to me. What's the metal thickness? Is there good penetration underneath?

Thanks, I didn't measure the metal thickness exactly but it's around 2.5mm.
I don't think my first bit had massive penetration, then I wound up the amps and nearly started blowing holes! backed off a touch and that seemed good.

Not bad at all. Looks like you have the settings very near. Your not really going to get any full pen on a crack, unless you keyhole it, and as you said, you were blowing holes. Practice, practice, practice. As they say.
