So fucking hot
Bro wtf is that?? That's pretty gross
good. mig or tig? if tig, work on your gun control and keep your cup movement more uniform.
5/10
5/10 and that's being kind
Sloppy actually. looks like you use a 7018 rod. You speed in inconstant and your start is filled with porosity.
Try holding for a second when you establish the ark, work on speed control (you need to maintain the same speed). I would also increase you amperage about 5.
theres a fuck load of undercut and its wiggly as hell. Move faster
Arc welder, it's my first attempt at a 90° fillet
looks amazing by my standards, mine usually looks like this
>establish the ark
so OP is building a boat? WTF its ARC you stupid cock
Poor toe fusion
Unsteady ass hand
Probably shitty work angle
Improper amperage, looks cold
4/10
Get better at 7018 faggot
good penetration. you undercut the ends like a fucker though.
take it slower, turn down the heat a little, try not to do so much of a michael j fox impression while there's an arc going.
find somewhere to prop while welding, it might help.
that probably isn't a stick weld It looks like mig. I don't see any slag on there and it just doesn't look like 7018
That is really bad dude, please just watch like one youtube video.
Turn up the heat and speed up. Looks like you're just learning. Keep these pictures forever. 6 months from now you'll look back and laugh at how stupid you were
>certified
lel
...
I removed the slag
So far we have, its to hot and its to cold, its mig and its stick.
Sounds helpful.
3.55 mb? Can Australians view the image without having their data cap breached?
Mig is way different.
The arc is the electrical connection between the tip of the welding rod or wire, and the metal you're welding. This connection superheats the welding rod, causing it to melt onto the metal you're welding.
Cause knowledge is power.
I never claimed to be a spelling bee champion. I usually go with the spell check and rarely go back and re-read all my typing.
Dear God
What are you doing?
>usually
Meaning you've repeated this same bullshit performance.
Your mums a slag
shit/10
Oppps! I meant to quote
uneven travel speed, undercut, and ffs clean your spatter
Needs some work but it looks pretty good. Keep at it, welding is a good fucking job once you're certified.
It has no structural strength, looks like shit and is basically a waste of resources and time, yet I still do it fully knowing how horrible I am at it. At this point I am willfully ignorant and refuse to learn anything. What the hell is wrong with me?
That...Is... COMPLETE SHIT
dont try to fill it in 1 pass m8, REMEMBER THE PROCEDURE
5/7
Looks nice, mine look like Turkey shit on a fence post.
Weld hot and deep is my motto, looks like shit and holds
I'm not OP. OP is god-tier levels above my skill level.
Steady your hand, and your pace. 45 degrees straight in there and drag slowly. Keep 1/8 of an inch between your rod and piece at all times.
5.125/10
Weld Porn search it up. It's rly hot
Holds but looks amateurish. Looks gross and weird.
Thats for the study m7
sloppy. i've seen better welds from illegal wetbacks
He better speed up and slow down too.
ITT: Youtube commenters.
that's the welding equivalent of fucking an aids riddled crack whore
Op do you go to Dit. Haha
A bit sloppy but willhold/10
DIT?
Can't you see its stick (arc)
pretty nasty overall!!
What's DIT?
your 1st weld? lol
Dublin Institute of Technology? lol
That undercut
r7 my weld
So fucking uneven.
>Weld not uniform
>Slag inclusion
Keep practicing/10
mine is superior
gassy
That is amazing
How does anyone fuck up that badly and keep on going
As Mr. Willard would tell me in welding class, git gud fag.
looks like 7018 to me
I took one semester of welding in high school and my first day with wire-feed looked a million times better than that. I have no idea how someone can be THIS bad at welding, unless they took the time to weld like absolute ass as b8
7/10 no dimes
Shit for Mig...
FACKIT!..... If it holds both sides together its 11/10. Screw u normies.
I'm embarassed on your behalf..
>amazingly you knew what he meant
rate my wold plz I r gud woldar?
hard to get nice dimes on vertical with 5/32" 7018 fill
u fggts jelly
You collect pores, huh?
>mig or tig?
Being this new
...
...
ooo...kaaaayyy, if you only need the four inches in the middle.
god how did you fuck this up so bad? even a retarded monkey can do better then this
lol what a joke of a trade
R8 my Weld
Are those sad attempts at oxy/acetylene down there?
...
How are there this many fucking welders on this board
>joke of a trade
You are the product of a trade between your whore mother and a nameless john - sex for food stamps.
I'm not a welder by trade but I have enough experience as a hobbyist to know what I'm talking about for the most part.
...
People think the one vocational credit they were forced to take in high school makes them an expert welder
that was a test piece i was working out the bugs on with my syncrowave 300.
And an ark is a large waterborne vessel thought to have saved humanity from some flood.
>ark
Best ark is arkafterdark, no doubt.
10/10
My latest D1.1 practice.
Did you even prep the surface before welding it?
use your run off tabs. you got them for a reason.
there's some undercut but definate potential, just keep practicing. good luck
whats up nick?
>inconsistent bead in the middle
why 7/10 user, what if he wants a job
garage is a mess, was welding up a crack in a hydraulic fluid cooler/radiator that goes on a crane. 300 amps makes the lights flicker.
How the fuck do you not bust your ass over such a mess?
Is there any good books on how to weld? I got a dirt cheep flux core welder from harbor freight and my welds are consistent shit.
That looks like the backside of an open root, depending on what the face looks like, that can be back gouged and filled for a nice sound weld.
not bad, but a little sloppy
Would use as a bookend/10
the procedure handbook of arc welding
>7018
5/10
>MIG
3/10
Uniformity needs work, erosion at end, the middle section appears to be lobed.
Are those pin holes called for in the drawings?
Aluminum MIG
How can every single welder on Cred Forums actually be this bad? It's like none of you even took a single class.
>red: porosity
>green: slag inclusion
>yellow: shitty tie in
I would make you redo. Plus the spatter on the other bead isn't technically a defect, but shows poor workmanship.

Best in thread
9/10
>dimes stacked
>>>>HOLY SHIT
You know... i never bothered doing aluminum with mig. It's always tig with me. That looks pleasant though. Bet it doesn't sound good.
Why are there so many fucking welders on Cred Forums? What's this say about us?
Many men find metal pleasant to work with.
we are hardcore working men who are also faggits
It's relaxing, practical, and bad ass.
Dam dude its decent.
I can see some places where you lost connection tho so you might want to grind the mill scale off your metal before you weld. What size wire/settings you run that on?
fuckin shit pit. clean it up boi!
Rate mine be kind first monster coupon
machine / 10
I want to ejaculate to this picture.
Aluminum MIG can be messy
fuck your advice, but also suck your dick for those trips... cunt
Very nice, restarts look a little swollen is all I can really say.
Derp derp
That's Noah's ark you cunt. This welding ark.
Now that's a perfect weld
You sir...are a bad motherfucker!! Congrats 10/10.
Mine
Mechanised weld of 10 far too perfect and uniform to be dome by hand.
3g mig, 1/2" plate
Fwiw, it passed aws.
I used to be all about pretty welds. I still do lay down some money shot beads, but now i focus on building shit. pic related
how long have you been welding user?
It's easy when you have a machine spinning it for you.
3f mig
filthy weaver
Haven't struck arc for money in 10 years. CWI for the win.
Thats what the Wps they handed me called for on the cover pass.
Root and filler are stringers
John white?
