Those guys shouldn't make fun of my welding skills like that. Oh, I guess that isn't my truck, I've never had a yota truck.

yup... i dont have any real world experience.. other than my lil projects.. and what i got from school and my welds are way better than that... heck ive had complements from people that have been in the field for 20+ yrs on how good mine are... alot of them are surprised at how long ive been doing it..

How can you not get better when welding? Those are in a league by themselves.

same way ya dont in any other field... they dont care to learn to do it the right way.. so they just stick with what they think works... from the looks of those welds there it looks like the guy was running the amps way too cold..

Funny thing is I think there are 2 different welders. One wire and one stick... so he got them both wrong? Wow.
