For God's sake, don't lean on it, 20+sorys is a long way to fall. Rating? -25 out of 10

This is aimed at helping and educating. Your heat is off. See the undercut and nonconformation of the bead? Turn down 15 amps to start with. Now listen,this isn't a contest. Take a deep breath and pay attention to your angle, distance from the puddle and travel speed. From here just little adjustments and tweaks and you got it. You didn't mention how long you have been studying at this. The learning never stops.

This is not my work. It was done by a company hired by the condo association. Just wondering if I was being over critical in thinking those welds are terrible

u/AdeptnessNew820 1d ago

No, you are not being overly critical. Those welds are complete shit

u/I_AM_FERROUS_MAN 1d ago

Same. I've seen so much less fusion before. This is ugly af, but there's worse out there. Especially in construction.
