    First stick welds, advice? 2.5mm mild steel, quite thin e6013 electrodes, 50 amps. Why would they be ‘bad welds’ and what do I look for in welds?

    I didn’t have cable issues anyway, the rod just seems long and wobbly haha it’s much easier to control when half used

    Requires decent effort and a lot of hammering 😅 spatter I think is because I’m having trouble keeping the correct arc length, either I don’t feed enough and it gets very long, or I feed to much and burn a hole in the plate lol

    Ignore the dirtiness, it was cleaned with a flap disk before I did the weld! These are the first ones, can’t do anymore as I’ve run out of steel 😅
