"what thickness metal u welding with taht setting?"

It's the metal scraps from the bed and doors of the Toyota.  (don't have any thick stuff to play with yet)
I'll check out those sites, and slow down the wire.  I'll keep the heat up and spot hit it.

Is my gas ok at 10CFH or should it be at 15 or 20?
Last question - should I be touching the metal I'm welding with the copper gas shield cover at the tip of the gun, or should it be an inch or so away from the action?

Thanks, guys.  You rock.
