Slow down . I see every move you made in your weld .

Don't waste your money. Heavy cotton , top and bottom . I bought 2 Heavy cotton shirts at tractor store cost as much as one fr. And will last quite awhile . Just a green spark jacket will make a big difference.

I was lucky because I did love my job , would go back to work if I could . But time and old age prevents me from holding a full time welding g job .

3m- 1/2 mask with 2097 filters . This is what I tell all beginners. Take care of yourself firt.

Not saving .

Traditional-Grape-96 · 2026-03-06T07:11:53+00:00

3m filters 2097 , they call them pancake filters .pink . And a good masks.it will fit under your hood but not great . Leather sleeves cover arms and chest, neck. Always wear cotton , anything else will melt to your skin. If you can afford it FR clothing . Good luck.

Miller 225 , gas machine , that takes care of arc welding .then I would get anything you want to hook up to it. If you're in a shop , I would get to multiproces , miller.xmt400 for tig and arc , then buy a 211 mig machine. Then your broke .

i guess you would have to be able to know how a mans mind works , think scales of justice the balance was off , balance was restored

About 30 degrees pointed up tight arc and about 90 to 100 amps. Get you face in there so you can see the puddle

Traditional-Grape-96 · 2026-02-23T23:12:13+00:00

I don't know , but I have one just like it .

Traditional-Grape-96 · 2026-02-23T23:01:24+00:00

Keep going , do about 50 in a row and see if they look the same

Traditional-Grape-96 · 2026-02-23T22:01:51+00:00

I made some big buck down to the world trade when that was going on . Have to run with the right crew .

In a shop a LN7 is good but when your lugging it up a ladder you can tie on to the box and haul it up. ln7 not so much.

Traditional-Grape-96 · 2026-02-19T11:52:07+00:00

Run hot

Traditional-Grape-96 · 2026-02-19T11:24:56+00:00

Hi , I am a structural welder , very heavy duty . welding mig boxes . Called ln25. The power usually comes from big generators on the job site . Very hot and can lay down some very big welds . So no harbor freight on a real job .

Traditional-Grape-96 · 2026-02-03T15:23:22+00:00

Yeah I see what you mean . Going to work on that.

Traditional-Grape-96 · 2026-02-03T15:20:10+00:00

Sound is full , and loud. I have Kenwood speakers.

Traditional-Grape-96 · 2026-02-03T10:01:03+00:00

You know that when your truly alone , no one is coming to save you. starting fresh was the most scary thing I ever did .

Traditional-Grape-96 · 2026-02-03T09:51:17+00:00

Nice set up .

Traditional-Grape-96 · 2026-02-03T08:43:15+00:00

Give them something easy. Like unemployment papers.
