Well now that I finally got logged back in. Thanks for all the info, I'm hoping to try some test pieces tomorrow. I re do the test on Monday.
@ Guide , thanks . What cup are you using? And yes the arc is unstable, at high amps. I was having trouble getting a smooth arc. I'm so use to weld fast , I have to remind myself to slow down.Your welds look great by the way.

Hello. Just an update , so I'm sad to say I didn't pass damn restarts. Missed it by a hair, the good news is the boss is going to buy a new machine. Other then the restart,I had good penetration.
