Up
I burned about a dozen electrodes today. I worked on laying beads on flat 1/8" pieces, using 6013 electrodes.
My main focus was to automate the hand movement, to move the electrode in accordance with the weld pool condition, and also "feed down" the electrode as it is consumed. I tried to learn to use the optimal arc height. The photos below are my last welds of this day.
Unfortunately, I am forced to spend rather large amount of time on family bullshit and did not practice as much as I would like.
