I currently have switched over to a gas. 100% argon. I have a Lincoln Pro-Core 100 Mig that I just switched over to the gas. I'm using a .023" SS 308L wire and trying to learn to weld SS. The settings on this machine are A-B-C-D for voltage and 1-10 for wire speed.
Last night I tried many many settings in push and drag styles. Most of the time the bead layed on top or was too hot. I finally found settings between B-2 and B-3 that make a decent looking bead. The push style seemed better. I was depositing the bead on a .043" SS beer keg top I had cut out.
Anyway there was much popping and hissing during the trials and it was frustrating. Then when i tried to fillet-weld two pieces (thicker stock) it didnt work..
Pretty agravating I must say..
Blueraven..
