    The best way to tell is to LOOK at the results. On my older 160, I dial it in about 18.5 and about 220 wire speed for a weld like that...But in a trailer plant, they'd consider that kind of cold. Hot and fast for that type tubing is all they know. However, there's not too much build up except on the side. The fillet part looks pretty good.

    On the side I had the gap to fill which is where it was touchy with that much heat.

    Just scewin around with it and trying to "get a feel" for different strokes and settings. Some day I want to be a welder!!

    Nice welds! How many times did you need to start and stop going around the tube? Have any issues tying in when you did?
    Is it OK to want to break something just so that you can weld it back together?

    I did two sides then readjust and do the other two.
