Mig like Tig

This thread is about making MIG look TIG, or really nice looking mig welds.

I am going to try something.

ONLY POST IF YOU HAVE A PICTURE OF YOUR OWN WORK.

The point is we want to SEE your attempt.

I am going to try to master this too.

Here is my picture. It aint like ZTfabs, but it was about 200 feet of weld.


WFS 330 of .035, about 20 volts C/25. This is 3/16" square tubing so there is a natural perfect fit up. I should have been at around 200 amps.

Horizontal, making circles going up on the forward stroke. First pass on clean bare steal, second pass down through the puddle. I turn the heat WAY UP to do this. 200 amps on 3/16" horizontal groove.
Here is a link to another thread

Nothing discussed here but Mig welds.

edit: Mig gun was held straight in the joint.
