Welding details
Thank you Joe and David for
the comments on yesterday's
welding post.
More cleaning and grinding of
the surface area along with a bump up in the amp setting might get me
closer to a stronger weld, but I think my main issue is lack of
practice.
Having Anna flip down the
welding mask window when I'm ready might help. I feel like each
time I closed the window my placement would shift.
Grounding the frame of the
ATV sounds like a good precaution to prevent stray currents from doing
any electrical damage. I can't believe I forgot that detail!

Mark,
You should get an auto-darkening welding mask, so you can see where you start welding.
I second that, I do some home welding and an auto darkening helmet made things so much easier. Mine was cheap and has lasted many years of occasional use. If I was buying another for light use I might try the sub $20 goggles from china/hong kong on ebay.
