I was fooling around with the Northern Industrial 125amp flux core welder I got for Christmas from my kids. After watching hours of you tube videos I decided to give it a try. I know using gas gives the best results but its not an option on this one, so I am going to try and work with it for now.
The picture below is what I got as far as penetration. Does it look acceptable? With the wire speed set at 2 and the power set at 1 I got the best results. Any higher power or wire speed and it burns right through. It's my first time using it and I have more metal to practice on.
I saw on you tube this anti splatter spray stuff you spray on before you weld and then wipe away the slag, anyone try it?
Any input would be greatly appreciated.
