Re: Mig welding wire

The thing with thin sheetmetal is go slow..."like molasses in wintertime"...."so slow I can count the hairs on your hand"...get a copper backer..where you can use it will help prevent blowthrough...
Jump around your seam doing spotwelds..get your gaps as good as you can...when I did a series of tack welds I waited till I could put my hand on the weld before moving on..and be sure to hammer and dolley..
