Order doesn't matter much. Its just like MIG welding... Some people are gonna say push, others are gonna say pull. But in the end either works. I've always gone left to right and it works for me.

Looks good, just like Poland said, watch those toes, rake em good. Why are you running cold on overhead? Overhead is just like flat (except overhead lol). Stay tight as hell and just burn it, not going to get into trouble unless you start long arcing and doing crazy movement.

That or you get a hot glob landing right in the crevice of your elbow or hands lol. I have scars from learning the hard way.
