  • My dad and me have a go on a gas mig welder I have picked up to see if the welds will improve. mixed results but I'm sure it will be better over time.

    The copper colour is actually a protective coating, but the wire will start to rust through it if left for a time.

      Ah, brilliant, thankyou. I did wonder. The person before has been using literally a few days before so it hadn't been sitting around.

    That’s the coating on the wire, sounds like your getting too close and it’s Arking back on the gas shroud, plus slow the wire feed down slightly to stop clumpy welds, it just takes practice

      Ok, cool. Hopefully I will do a bit more practice later today. Lots of fiddling required! Thankyou

    rusty wire will cause exactly that!

      Yes, I thought so. I'm going to keep trying and see if things improve. If not, new wire it is then.
