            Should be no worries with that coming apart. Looks like decent penetration and gas coverage. You using the cursive "e" method? I seem to do the best with it personally. I'm no expert by any means - but you're doing good so far ...

                  What’s a good way to end a weld without the thinning down at the end?

                          Slow down at the end and hold it a second before letting off the trigger.

                              Can you explain how you see that?

                              I'm serious, not being rude. I would love to learn to weld WELL one day.

                              Is it because the metal "spray"
