Metal just welds itself together as soon as Chuck Norris enters the room.

The best stick machine Ive ever used is a Hobart 250. Im not a professional welder by any means but it was better than the Lincoln 250 AC/DC I learned on and the 250 AC/DC in my shop. I loved using the miller mig and tig but for some reason (either me or the machine) I couldnt tig worth a shat.

could have been you, but the machine could have been set incorrectly. pulse makes it harder to use sometimes.

My brain had a hard time telling my foot to back out of the pedal once the metal heated up and wanted to burn through. Then when I backed off I stuck the tip.

Its been years since Ive tried again though.
