Sweet. Any reason you ordered a spool gun as opposed to the push/pull? Big price differece i suppose?
Do you find the preset settings to be to your liking for the most part?How is the polarity switched?
I will be getting this at my work shop next week. Lincoln Power Mig 350MP. It's pretty sick. 350 amps, and will do stick which will be cool for carbon arc gouging, as well as pulsed arc mig. It is capable of GTAW as well, and push/pull wire feeding for aluminum and/or a longer hose because it can be equipped with a feed roller at the gun.Not that it has any bearing on the discussion, but I'm stoked.They told me to get what I wanted so this is definitely it.
I said I wasn't interested anymore but back to one of my posts earlier, Beveling a T joint will allow the perpendicular piece to be penetrated well with the current settings on the welder, however the rest of the parent material is still at full thickness and less penetration will be achieved to the base plate and the full thickness piece just above the beveled area. A way to overcome this would be to pre-heat the base plate with a rose bud as for the perpendicular beveled piece pre-heating it would most likely cause the welder to blow through the beveled area. The better way to get even and equal penetration to both pieces of material would be to use an alternate form of welding like spray transfer. And how often is it going to be realistically possible to pre-heat any metal near most of the welding projects that the members of this board are attempting. If your going to try to convince audiences through proper debate you have to fully consider those you are trying to convince. Most of the non status quo info coming into this discussion is irrelevant to the non certified homeowner hobbyist.
Think about how much thinner you are making the beveled piece. My bad got sucked into an off topic topic, debate one topic at a time or start a new thread.
