My rods are so old, I am going to have to put them in the oven to bake the moisture out again. My wife will love that!
I am self taught welding. Sometimes I get really pretty welds and some look like garbage. It also did not help that I was welding in the driveway with lots of wind blowing my gas away and on 40' of extension cord.
Thanks,
Scott
Not only would I have to bake my rods but sand the rust off the bare end before I put them in my Lincoln 225 AC welder. I'm self taught as well and got much better when I discovered self-darkening glass in welding helmets. That's not to say I'm good; just better than I was.
