FIRST WELDS!! 250EX in stick mode!!

[fdcmiami]

3/32 7018 is used on heavy plate. done all the time. just saw a guy weld some 1 in. thk lugs onto a 50 ton assy with 3/32 7018 so the riggers could hook up; inspector initialed it. i am not saying this is the best or most efficient way, i like 1/8th but it is done just the same.

i ran these stringers, about 70 rods testing the EX. the weave is the final of three passes using my 350 xmt, the other is from the EX two passes and 6 tie ins. note, it's half inch to one inch plate

i was comparing them to the xmt 350;
