U are funny, I think it was me. It starts to rust quite fast when you clean it with alcohol, acid and hot water.

7018 practice

Found a pice of pipe 23x100mm that just wanted to be welded. This was in hlo45 (6g). With 7018 dcep. I run a 2mm rod in the root. And a hot pass with 2.5mm after this I run 14 passes with 3.2mm. Really good practice that will keep you entertained for a while.
