There are a multitude of videos on Utube that show correct welding techniques and troubleshooting welds with flux core welders, take a look if you want.

Well if your just doing one pass then by all means learn me! I'm tired of grinding welding grinding welding...... AGHHHHHHH
On this jamb its thick enough I'm comfortable running a bead but on thin stuff I was always told to just tac and move around (and I did out of muscle memory) so how will I ever get a solid weld by tacing around like that?
