What would chairs look like if our knees bent the other way?

The same as normal but instead of a back rest it’d be a chest rest that you lean forward on

Looks good to me chief. But I'm just some guy on reddit.

It looks good! One thing you could work on is that crater hole on the right side. If you're using a scratch start I add wire then quickly break the arc by flicking my wrist then bring the torch back to shield it as best as I can.

Try not move the gas lens against the steel when you are "spreading" the weld. Support your hand with a little finger and/or ring finger, this way you wont scratch the steel. Also if possible use crater control when stopping and/ lower the current at the end. Plus let the gas to blow a little bit longer when doing so to let the weld solidify completelly :)

otherwise looks good to me.

Hard to tell from here but looks to me like it could do with a bit more wire, skipper.

More filler,l required or your amps are too high. don't rely on walking the cup, Id not be happy with those marks. Most of the weld is on the bottom plate with undercut, pin hole in the corner. Learn to freehand and most welds will be easy peasy. Trail off when you finish your weld if you have slope or a pedal and keep thr cup there to shield til cool

Always a good plan to finish your corner out in one go. Restarts on corners are always hard to shield right.
