The forum has that jumping cursor problem again where midway through typing a sentence the cursor jumps to the line above.

When I weld .100 aluminum I still use 4043 3/64" (.047) wire at around 16 to 17 Volts 230 to 250 amps/wire argon 20 to 22 CFM and it is close to spray welding. The pulse is nice but I don't have that feature.
