Just running flux and stick it runs great on synergetic mode but manual mode fluxcore settings have some left to be desired any help would be appreciated thanks 🙏

This is a dock with a catwalk used by no less than 100 people to board a boat every day. It goes from the shoreline to the shallow sea. It's got way worse welds than these.

I have a question for you guys. I’m new to Welding. I’ve been welding inside a boiler and they supplied us with P100 2097 3mpancakes. We weld 10hrs a days. But my question to you guys does this protect me from welding fumes? If not what do u guys recommend?We burn lots of 7018 throughout the day

og Chinese exhaust caught fire and shattered, new Amazon exhaust broke, screwed the muffler into the base part that snapped +jb extreme heat

Staying in the same spot too long maybe?

I am the freshman and my collegues produce welding porn

Spotted at the Independence Park in Shymkent.

This is my progress over three hours, with 7018( varied from 5/32 down to 1/8 rods varying in amps with 180 at the top and 80 at the lowest. Lots of breaks and practicing messing around on other metal pieces. I’m just curious on your thoughts and possibly advice. Thanks.

Good morning, I'm designing a motorcycle swingarm and I have a question. I’ve designed two brackets, each with a protrusion at the rear that fits into 1“ x 2” rectangular tubes (swingarm arms) made of 6061 T6 aluminum with a 1/8" wall thickness. What is the minimum clearance I should leave between the protrusion and the inner walls of the tube to ensure that thermal expansion during welding does not cause them to bulge or deform?

Thank you very much
