Re: 53 3100 Project - My first truck build...

glad to hear! its amazing that lowering the heat and turning up the speed is a cure, sounds counter intuitive.

yeah 22 ga is a little thin when you are welding it to the 18ga of the fender. in that case I would start my weld on the thicker side and pull it to the thin. we are talking about maybe 2mm of movement, so it will take some practice, just imagine twisting the gun almost as soon as you start the tack.
