That looks better than some of the commercially welded stuff these days! It’s pretty rare I can make a nice stack of dimes, but I know my welds hold, penetration is key, you can have a textbook perfect weld that doesn’t have enough penetration to hold and you can have an ugly thing that will rip the surrounding metal apart before it failsI know I'm no where near being a pro-welder but I think I'm getting ok with this Flux core wire feed. Some are worse than others but I'm kinda proud of this weldView attachment 96582
