#5 cup is all I use for this that and everything else..(WP-20 Watercooled)
I see no difference in anything so why bother making all these changes when it don't matter?

I have all sorts of cups that have never been used in 6 years..

...zap!
When it don't matter eh?

I know when we changed from a #4 or #6 to a #8 or larger cup, with shield, we could weld 4130 tube much more efficiently and keep the color in the weld better.

It mattered then. :)
