I doubt your fit up will be that nice when you actually cut a patch in (it takes a ton of time and practice to get that perfect fit up). If you have a gap of .030 you will likely burn through with the setting for number 4. Play around some more with a bit of a gap. You will see a lot of differences with penetration and profile with the different gaps and settings.

I got my first panel fitted but I have a couple more questions.
1. Where should tack first? Corners? Middle?
2. Should I but the welds next to each other or over lap them with the next weld?
