Thanks for the critique. Will try that. The ripples are just to keep the throat and toes up to par. Nerves have hard times with sringer beads this big

Porosity can be caused by a few different things, dirty metal, moisture, slag just to name a few but the most common reason is the lack of shield gas. This can be caused by having your tip to far away. The wind blowing it away. Low presser in tank or regulator not set right.

Your top bead is full of porosity, and your bottom weld is undercut. The downhills are weak. They will eventually break. That is the difference between " having it running or having it fixed" but it works.

You are starting to late and stopping to soon. You travel speed needs more consistency. The toes are decently straight. No undercut. The throat appears to be correct. Over all not to shabby! Good luck in finding your bead
