as I acquired a load of big wire thought I best try some of it out.
Useing a modified butters wf500/4 on a vantage 575. Wire 0.72”. Or 1.8mm ish
Running between 4 and 5 mtrs min. Last weld at indicated 4 mtrs/min. 26.5 volts. But weld voltage probaly lower as eathclamp caught fire.
First attempt
2nd attempt better but still crap
3rd and 4 th attempts
This dragging thing is weird when not useing rods
Last go of the evening.
It’s takeing some getting used to . Think I need to sort a couple of the leads out as it seems to be giveing them some serious abuse.
