[QUOTE="Perplexed, post: 1650966, member: 7157"] Are you talking about the spatter? If so, did you try spraying the two parts being welded with Pam or something similar? It helps keep the spatter from sticking. What I'm having trouble with now is burn-through. I've really had to dial down my Miller 220V welder when welding up anything thinner than 1/8" steel, otherwise I end up with less metal around the welds than before. Even at the lowest settings, I still have to move fast through the weld, and it ends up looking sloppy. [B]ETA:[/B] I know that using gas rather than flux core helps tremendously when welding thin metal. Still, it's a challenge! :) [/QUOTE]
