For steel that would be fine. For aluminum you will want to go larger. Also it can depend on the torch, a water cooled one can wring a little bit more out of a small tungsten. For sheet metal I like a 1/16" in a WP-20 torch. However, that CK Flex-loc has me thinking about a change.
Long arc, short arc, heliarc and in-the-dark!
