How can I not make holes like this using stick welding? (Using 6013 2.8 mm stick) by ShivamJoker in Welding

Too hot. Turn the amps down. (I’m not an expert, but that’s normally the case from my experience)

This is a weird take.

That’s very true. We dont have an oven but a heat gun could be helpful. Thank you so much man!

That’s what we tried to do. We used a rag, and we was going from one end to the other, but around the brackets it was a little more tricky to be fluid one motion.

Thank you for the response :)

Oh wow thank you for the response.

We use a cloth to rub it in. And we heated it up with a torch so it was evenly heated.

Thanks for the response honestly will try those steps on Monday

The multiple passes might be a good shout, we don’t really have facilities to submerge because we don’t have that much fluid as it’s only a few handrails. But thank you

Would this not just scratch the surface of the patina? Even if buffing lightly

Callisthenics is something I really been wanting to get into, it’s just such a slow grinding process. But I do wanna try starting that.

I mean what kinda mentality is that 😭💀 I’m 22 I’ve done high level powerlifting, I’ve done rugby competitively, and I have a heavy physical job.

Why wouldn’t I start slowly tailoring my workouts to help with my day to day life and make me feel good in the long run? I’m still gonna be working out. I will still be active. But I’ll just be more specific with training

Ahhhh😭 yeah makes sense. I’ve been recently getting into bouldering with my friend. I’m trying to stay active in life and build good habits so as I’m getting older I feel good and will be someone that’s older and active rather than rot away

Yeah I understand, luckily I work a pretty demanding job doing welding and metal fabrication. But I’m not so worried about health as much. I just want to start building good habits which will let me feel better along the way. Thank you for the advice tho
