well its not pretty but building up a gob to get the puddle seemed to work. Now I am going to try with a 1/16" filler and see if I can get a smaller bead on this 1/8" flat stock. That is the 3/32 tungsten I am using.

That's a T joint. Looks like you're getting it. Grind a small land on the end of the tungsten. It will help it take the amps when welding on A/C. For DC I would keep it just the way it is. just jam the tungsten in right in between the two and light up. The heat will build up then as you feed in filler it will wick itself up to the top piece. from the looks of it you've already kind of picked up on that. Just keep at it
